Case Study: Catawba County Schools achieves 45% reduction in workers' compensation claims with Vector Solutions

Managing Compliance Training Online Results in 45% Reduction in Workers' Compensation Claims

Catawba County Schools, a North Carolina district serving 16,000 students across 28 schools with 2,100 employees, needed a better way to deliver and track required compliance and safety training and to reduce workers’ compensation claims. In 2016 the district adopted the Vector Training System from Vector Solutions to address inconsistent training completion and inadequate record keeping.

Vector Solutions implemented the Vector Training System—providing online courses, automatic email reminders, clean records, and a Custom Course Tool for district‑specific and job‑specific assignments. Over 3,000 users completed nearly 82,000 courses, and Catawba saw a 45% reduction in workers’ comp claims within three years, lowering insurance rates and saving time and money.
