Step 1: Identify an Employer Outreach Coordinator

Do you have existing employer coalitions?  Is there a full or part-time person interested in focusing on building your employer outreach program? Appointing a dedicated Employer Outreach Coordinator is a key factor in successful employer outreach programs.

Options:

  • Select a dedicated full or part-time program manager within the SHSO to serve as the Employer Outreach Coordinator.
  • Create an Employer Outreach Coordinator position using grant funding to your State Safety Council (could be funded through allocation of a portion of the state’s 402 Funds).
