Promotional incentives

Mining company Anglo American, which had 40 worker fatalities in 2007, has warned managers in its South African operation that they will not be promoted if the company's safety record doesn't improve, see here. The group's chairman announced the move at the April AGM. We've written a lot in HSW about incentives for employees to reduce accident records and even a few management bonuses tied to safety performance, but this looks like a very clear way to focus managers' minds.
