Are you focused?
Many employees are stressed because of the current economic situation. People are thinking about their own situation and what will happen if they get laid off. Some have spouses who are now out of work; many are falling behind on bills…they are not focused on the task at hand and that can lead to accidents and injuries. Daily tailgate meetings can help employees get their minds back on the job. With Eyes and Mind on Task, workers are aware of their surrounding and better able to Stay out of the Line of Fire. If your company has an Employee Assistance Program, make sure your employees are aware of it.
Build on your Successes
Every day without an injury or accident is a success. It starts when each employee makes a commitment to safety. We must all choose to make safety a core personal value. It cannot simply be a priority – we all know priorities change. Doing the right thing is not always easy but it is Always Right. Challenge yourself to Stand Up and Speak Out for Safety whenever you see a safety concern. Finding a deficiency or witnessing an unsafe act is your OPPORTUNITY to make a positive impact in somebody’s life. Like the folks at Nike say, ‘Just Do It!’
