The flexibility of Bingo has often seen it being used in a number of ways, and a number of offices are now using the game to promote work-place safety on an everyday basis. Not only can the game be used to encourage team-work, but can also be used to reward employees for following/enforcing safe practices.
In order to get started, all the employees would need to be given their respective Bingo cards in accordance to their specific profiles. An employee would need to use a copy of the same card for all the Bingo games. After the initially set prize, the prize can be raised continually as employees’ progress. If employees have accidents in between two games, the prize money can revert back to the original amount. A list should be made that contains the accidents that would qualify (which could include accidents that require medical attention or time-off) for the game, and every time an accident present on the list takes place, a new game begins and the prize can go back to the originally set amount.
This game is ideally played with personnel of the ‘human resources’ being the callers. For everyday that goes by accident free, a new number can be drawn. Every unit/employee can then either be notified through emails, or via the employee notice board. Employees that reach Bingo can then notify their immediate superiors about the same. In contrast to conventional Bingo, these games can go on for days.
After the winner is declared, copies of the cards can then be distributed again, and this starts a new game.
