Safety Is Everybody's Job Everyone in the plants, regardless of what his job is or the length of time he has been here, has a responsibility to work safely and to make the work of others as safe as possible. Upon accepting employment everyone is instructed and urged to study and become familiar with all the regulations pertaining to safety. Aside from this, we should all be concerned enough in our own well-being as well as the life and limb of our fellow-employees to make accident prevention an important part of our work habits. Doing a job the SAFE way is just as much the responsibility of employees as it is the responsibility of supervision. To take chances just because we know no one is looking is to flirt with an accident. Each employee, after he has been instructed in the safe procedures of operating his job, should employ the same power of observation as do the supervisors. He knows that unless he is in the proper nositicn when lifting he is flirting with a strained back. In other words, the wrong position when lifting can be cause for an accident. He knows that by failing to use gogglers when grinding, drilling, or chipping he is liable to lose the sight of an eye, or worse yet. both eyes. He knows that when he fails to use the proper protective equipment he is inviting a disabling injury or an early and untimely death. Then wouldn't it be a good idea to stop assuming that it is the other fellow's resnonsi bility to prevent accidents? One can't pass his responsibility for working safely to the other fellow any more than he can the physical suffering or loss of earnings he experiences when he becomes injured. Accident prevention is everybody's job and the sooner everyone realizes this and cooperates to that end, the better off we will be. P/~ (IN jjH . |T> ??
