Case Study: Horry County Schools saves $787,000 in workers' compensation claims with Vector Solutions

Horry County Schools was seeking a training solution to help reduce work-related injuries and workers' compensation claims.

Horry County Schools, the third-largest district in South Carolina serving more than 38,000 students across 50 schools and roughly 5,866 employees, was experiencing a high number of work‑related injuries, many repeat or serious incidents, and rising mod rates and workers’ compensation premiums. With limited travel and training budgets, the district sought a scalable solution and selected Vector Solutions’ Vector Training (formerly SafeSchools) Online Training System to address training gaps and reduce claims.

Vector Solutions implemented its Vector Training system to automate assignment, delivery, and compliance tracking of school-focused, interactive online courses available 24/7, enabling administrators to assign courses, auto-notify staff, and run detailed reports. The district completed over 55,000 course completions in under 90 days, saw fewer serious injuries, and saved $787,000 in workers’ compensation claims in one year—results Horry County attributes directly to Vector Solutions.
