Prescription Safety Eyewear Made Easy
By M.B. Sutherland, Sr. Safety Writer, Magid
Keeping your workers safe can be a complicated job. But one thing you can make easier is providing prescription safety eyewear. Here are three things to look for in a program that will help to keep your team protected and seeing clearly, with minimal effort from you!
1 EXPERTISE & FLEXIBILITY
Before you plan your program, talk to a Prescription Safety Eyewear Professional. They should be able to review your needs and offer appropriate solutions for your team.
While these programs were complicated in the past, new RX programs are easy to administer and convenient for workers who need prescription eye protection.
A good program will be customized to meet your particular needs in supplying alternative safety eyewear for workers with prescription glasses. That includes:
A Wide Array of Frames to Choose From
Combination Metal/Plastic
Conventional Metal
Full Seal Goggle
Full Seal Wrap
Non-Conductive Wrap
Standard Plastic with Side Shield
Wrap Around
Plastic Wrap-around with Brow Guard
A Variety of Options to Deliver Products to Your People
Delivered to Your Office
Shipped to Your Local Provider for Final Fitting
Available Via Online Custom URL
2 EASY BILLING & PAYMENT - NO MORE REIMBURSEMENT PROGRAMS!
If your current program has you jumping through hoops to pay the bills, it’s probably time for a change. Even programs that used to be easy now require you to track and prepay debit cards to distribute to your workers. So if a worker quits before using the card, if it gets lost or stolen, if costs are going over the allotted amount or money is sitting unused on a card – it’s all your headache. Instead, look for a program that:
- Works with your pre-set allowance so you can designate each worker’s spend without worrying about going over
- Offers corporate wholesale pricing to save you money
- Bills you directly with no need for debit cards
- Allows you to pay only for the safety glasses you buy each month for easy tracking and payment
- Lets workers pay for any charges above their allowance if they want a more expensive pair of glasses while also offering a break on retail pricing and no need for them to wait for reimbursement
3 LOCAL PRESCRIPTION EYEWEAR SUPPORT
Good programs support your community by partnering with local opticians to get workers professionally measured, but still offer access to retail outlets.
Your prescription safety eyewear program should be something you set up once and revisit each year to make sure it’s still working for you, not a wheel you need to reinvent every month. Make sure you’re working with a provider that makes obtaining prescription eyewear easy for you.
