Summary

You know how important workplace safety is - "It's our number one priority!" the company president would say -, but you have the same training every year and you have hardly used any of it in your daily activities.

We all know everything about safe behavior, right? Adding Gamification in Training.

To design a Human-Focused experience and add the 8 Core Drives to their workplace safety training experience.

We visited Belgium and Brazil, their two main production facilities, to have a better grasp of their challenges while following our gamification design framework.

The goal was to convince the company Directors of the importance of the gamification intervention to their health and safety training so we could follow-up with the full project for the gamified training app.

The gamification experience should make it clear to users how much they have progressed, what is still missing, and how well they are performing on the covered content.

Safety training is something they will face throughout their entire careers in the company, so it is important to add meaningful choices and relevant gamification strategies to the experience to make it last longer.

Every time we are able to add a consistent game loop to our gamification design, we are raising the odds of a lasting experience.

We are tracking key business metrics to make sure the gamification experience is not only engaging, but also employees are acting safer and the number of accidents is decreasing.
