ARE YOU SERIOUS ABOUT SAFETY AT HOME?

THE ISSUE

PROBABLE CAUSES

• Employees' attitude towards safety is a "consequence" attitude, i.e.
  I  'GOTO'  instead of  I  'WANTO'  do safety - because I believe it is the right thing to do.
• Employees see safety as an issue that concerns them only when at work. Once they leave the factory / mine gate, different safety standards kick in.
• Companies spend virtually no money and effort on home safety, i.e. % of safety budget spent directly on improving safety outside the gate = ZERO.
• We - the employer and employees - don't have time and / or money, and / or ...    the list goes on and on.
