Reducing Unsafe Acts of Office Employees program emphasizes the importance of training and enforcement of rules, laws and standards. The results of hundreds of thousands of investigations reveal that 85% to 98% of all accidents are caused in whole or in part by employee carelessness, negligence, or violating safety rules. For a safety program to be effective, safety rules must be enforced by management. Enforcing safety rules is a management responsibility, but working and acting safely including following safety rules is the employee's responsibility.
