    Description

    With work related legal and liability issues of all kinds- especially lawsuits- at an all-time high, it just makes sense to cover all the bases. Your mascot is much more than just a
    costume
    - it’s a complex work related business
    tool
    , and it just makes good business sense to insure that those that use it do so safely and professionally, as they would any other specialized piece of equipment.
    In most cases, local, state, and federal business agencies such as OSHA require that businesses and organizations provide written training and safety guidelines for all employees, regardless of their job. A properly prepared set of written mascot operating instructions- stressing proper procedures and safety - is an absolute necessity if you wish to operate and maintain the best possible mascot program
    .
    D
    eveloped and written with the cooperation and consultation assistance of
    The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA),
    "The Kincaid Karacter S.T.O.P. Manual"
    is
    a comprehensive “how to” guidebook for your mascot program that covers all the “ins and out’s” of maintaining, performing, cleaning, storing, and transporting your mascot in a safe, professional manner.
    "S.T.O.P." stands for "Safety-Training, Operations, & Performance";
    it's an absolutely indispensable mascot manual that will teach you & your organization the industry secrets of creating, purchasing, maintaining, and performing award-winning mascot costumes and programs.
    It's perfect for the individual or organization seeking to buy a mascot
    and start a mascot program for a school, university, business, or corporation...or it makes the perfect “turn-key” instruction manual for the existing mascot performer or program.
    Mascot costumes are considered workplace equipment, just like any other on-the-job tools. By issuing
    The Kincaid Karacter S.T.O.P. Manual
    to your performers as a required part of their training and employment, you are formally implementing written instructions and safety standards for your mascot costume and program that will make your program safer and thus help keep your legal liability to a minimum in the event of an accident or mishap.
