You read the title, rolled your eyes, and groaned. “Not another article on safety.” Or, maybe, you said, “Ah-ha, I knew all along safety wasn’t a priority.”
“Safety is our number one priority! Safety First!”
The claims make me cringe. The slogans put safety in competition with production. Are you somebody who declares, “Safety First!” until production, slips, stumbles and falls behind schedule? Perhaps corners are cut, hazards don’t seem so risky. And perhaps injuries happen.
