Implementation Best Practices
🚀 Set Up for Success
A smooth SoterCoach launch starts with planning and engagement. These steps help ensure your program is well-received, effective, and sustainable across your workforce.
📍 1. Position the Hub for Visibility
Place the SoterCoach Hub in a high-traffic, easily accessible area:
- Near the time clock
- In the break room
- Or along a common entry/exit path
Set it up before launch day to build curiosity and buzz.
📌 2. Post Educational Materials
Use Soter-provided posters and reference materials around the Hub. These support:
- On-the-spot clarification of device beeps and feedback
- Continuous worker education throughout the program
🧪 3. Test with Site Leaders First
Before rolling out to all staff:
- Have site managers, shift leads, and other workplace influencers wear the device for a few days
This builds buy-in and helps leaders explain:
- How it works
- What workers should expect
- The value of the program from firsthand experience
📣 4. Host a Pre-Launch Toolbox Talk
Prepare a short kickoff presentation or safety talk covering:
- Why the program matters: Emphasize injury prevention, safer movement, and staying pain-free at work and at home
- How to wear the device correctly
- The value of ergonomic insights for improving job design and reducing risk
