Ohio BWC’s Safety Council Rebate Program will remain suspended for the 2021 policy year (7/1/21-6/30/22). While many safety councils are still hosting web-based meetings each month, no rebates will be paid. This means attendance is not mandatory, but Spooner still urges its clients to participate in safety council events to stay educated and use the info to help reduce incidents. • All meetings will continue to be virtual • There will be no semi-annual reports collected in 2021 • BWC will host two virtual statewide safety council meetings • No rebates will be paid While the Safety Council Rebate is unavailable in the coming year, there are other cost-saving programs available through BWC that may be worth exploring. Substance Use Recovery and Workplace Safety Program – A reimbursement program for substance use policy development, training and drug testing (currently available in participating counties but soon to rollout statewide) Better You, Better Ohio! – A health and wellness program where employees can earn incentives Policy Activity Rebate (PAR) - A customizable plan that allows employers to earn a rebate. Employers enrolled in Group Rating, Group Retro, Individual Retro and Deductible program are not eligible for
