Safety in Perspective

'Emotion' is not a control measure in safety management... So, your actions and activities at work must be rational and definite! Be Safe! You cannot assume or feel that systems are safe until you confirm it. So if in doubt, ask question. It is safer to be sure of the realities...just one mistake can be too costly, no matter how insignificant it may seem on the surface.

Safety is a conscious effort...a decision to stay out of harm's way and cannot be left to your feelings or unstable emotions. Remember, if it is not safe, don't do it! The choice for safety is yours! Make the right choice all the time consciously.

Welcome to Safety & Health

My desire is to see people live and work safely. This appears a simple goal to achieve; however, in my years of practice, I have seen that this is a very challenging goal for me to achieve. Nevertheless, i have resolutely decided to do this since i am convinced that this is the best GIFT i can give to mankind. Statistics about losses as a result of work, recreation and other human activities are unimaginable. Many have lost their lives and aspirations due to unsafe and at risk behaviours hence, the need for a paradigm shift and mental renovation in people. The truth is ‘accidents don’t just happen, they are caused.’
This blog is being created to provide a platform to helping people learn few tips of living and working safely. It will also serve to encourage people to consciously choose to be safe, in spite of the generalised and perceived opinions and beliefs on why accidents occur. Comments, questions and suggestions are therefore welcomed at every level to make this goal achievable.
If just one person changes through this medium and chooses to stay alive by living and working safely, then a lot would have been achieved in the society, especially in this part of the world.
Safety is possible! I believe it! I work it! I live it!
Welcome to safety, security and healthy environment.
Enjoy unequal PEACE!

"It Happened to Me!"

Dear readers,
This is a column created for us to share safety (occupational health, safety, security and environment) experiences that we have had or heard. A lot can be learnt from events that have happened in the past and these to a large extent may be the all important factor in saving some other people's lives. As the saying goes, 'the falling of a yellow leaf is a warning to the green ones' - (African proverb)
Let others learn from your experiences and not by it. We can make our world a safe place by simply telling our stories. You may keep your identity (if necessary), but share the experience so that we can learn the lessons.

Save a life today - share that experience!

Send your experiences to the blog administrator at dapo.omolade@gmail.com
