abstract="Different types of awareness sessions to promote employee safety belt use were evaluated. Across eight different employee safety meetings three dichotomous variables were manipulated: the type of presentation format (lecture vs discussion), the presence or absence of safety belt pledge cards, and the presence or absence of an incentive component. All groups showed a four-fold increase in safety belt use. Five months after the interventions, belt use was still significantly higher than baseline levels. Generalization across employees was demonstrated by a significant increase in safety belt use for those who did not attend the awareness session. The awareness session with a discussion format influenced greater increases in safety belt use than did the lecture-based sessions, but pledge cards and incentives did not increase the impact of these awareness sessions.",
