Safety and Compliance Training: Reinforce Safety Training with Chatbots
Contents
Highlights
Coach Jesse is a chatbot designed by Aristocrat Technologies and Mobile Coach. The chatbot delievers a one-year safety coaching and reinforcement program in pieces that are easy to apply into daily routines.
- 85% reduction in vehicle and medical incidents
- 71% of users respond on average to each of Coach Jesse’s prompts
- Coach Jesse received a Brandon Hall Group Excellence in Technology Silver Award in 2017 for Best Online Coaching Tools
Key Challenges
Aristocrat has a large, dispersed workforce of technicians who install and repair gaming machines. The business needs for this project were:
- Fulfill regulatory requirements for safety training
- Keep employees and customers safe
- Help technicians to safely install increasingly complex machines in an
environment in which we lack total control
“The Mobile Coach chatbot has been part of our culture change from a workforce that uses desktops, paper, and learns once and forgets it. The chatbot was key to changing to a mobile workforce that continuously learns and reinforces. Our safety numbers are up and accidents are down—that’s a success to me!”
The Solution
A Mobile Coach chatbot was chosen by the Aristocrat team because:
- It offered flexibility for the technician to engage on their timeline
- It provided a frictionless user experience, chatbot easily integrated into technicians existing digital habits
- Aristocrat is transitioning to more digital and mobile learning
- It scaled to technicians throughout the United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico
Aristocrat partnered with Mobile Coach to create a chatbot named Coach Jesse to facilitate the safety and compliance reinforcement. Jesse followed up with safety alerts, reminders, and supplemental materials. Jesse’s main goals were to:
- Change behavior by reinforcing safety training
- Engage a remote workforce
- Bring safety to the front of mind
Design
Coach Jesse delivers a one-year safety coaching and reinforcement program via SMS. Despite being a chatbot, Coach Jesse was designed to have a personality making the experience feel natural and personal. Coach Jesse is a powerful learning tool who messaged bi-weekly with a tip, a question, a quiz, and a sense of humor.
Each interaction involves Coach Jesse focusing on a topic, such as electrical safety, at the macro level with a question to test understanding. After a user response, Coach Jesse gives feedback including resources on the best method.
Results
Since launching in 2016 the Coach Jesse chatbot:
- Has a 71% response rate across all interactions
- Has successfully engaged technicians in regular safety training and kept key information top of mind
- Helped reduce vehicle and medical incidences from 21 annually to 3
