As you learned in this unit, rewarding teams for their work performance benefits not only the team but also the entire company. These types of rewards work best when they are consistently implemented, however, so it’s important to have a plan in place. For this activity, imagine you are a team leader at an automotive factory. Your supervisor has charged you with reducing injuries in the factory. There have been several recent incidents that have left employees unable to work and have cost the company thousands of dollars in workers’ compensation. Your job is to come up with an incentive plan to reward your team for following the company’s safety guidelines. Your completed plan should include:

A specific goal or goals for your team
A detailed list of at least five incentives available for team members who meet the goals
The rationale for each incentive, including how each incentive is relevant to the goal or the team members
A schedule for when incentives will be awarded
