The Three Enemies of Safety
1. HABIT
If you are used to danger, you tend to overlook it, and it makes you careless and indifferent. Always be careful even if nothing has happened to you before, it may be too late afterwards!
2. HASTE
Hasty movements impair your concentration and control, endangering you and others. Work calmly and at even pace, taking everything into consideration.
3. THE OTHER PERSON
Always be aware of the other person who may not be observing the safety rules. No one wants to be the unlucky person who is in the right but lands in hospital.
Health & Safety - First Response
