SAFETY
CAREERS SPOTLIGHT
At Advance, safety has its own mascot, a character named Stick Stickler. Stick’s charge – ensure every team member understands the importance of workplace safety and make learning about safety fun and engaging. Stick Stickler first appeared in a store-focused safety training video in 2012 and was an instant hit. The character was subsequently featured in a series of short training videos that used humor to promote best practices and expose unsafe behaviors that could put team members and customers at risk. Over the years, Stick Stickler was incorporated into other safety materials, including tool kits, presentations and posters that target stores, distribution centers and Advance delivery drivers. The character became so popular, it was recognized by Risk & Insurance Magazine with a 2013 Risk Innovator Award and a separate Responsible Leader Award. Later, the Self-Insurance Institute of America (SIIA) invited Advance Auto Parts to present the concept of Stick Stickler at its Worker’s Compensation Executive Forum.
