  1. PSA: A hard hat might seem like overkill when you are not going up to roofspace or climbing ladders (where there is risk of items falling from above), but I was glad for one a couple of weeks ago, as I was in the plant room at the top of the general hospital, looking at the space for an equipment rack and clouted my head on a solid metal duct for airco that runs the length of the plant room - without the hat this would have been painful! #safety #PPE #OccupationalSafety #SafetyAtWork

  6. Capitalism is bad for everyone involved (even the 1%, seeing as billions can’t buy you happiness).

    Here’s half a page from our #GraphicNovel of The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists showing how apprentice boy Bert is forced to risk his life and his health for his boss.

  7. CW: India - industrial medical disaster

    @mbrmark the USA has only limited regulation of asbestos too
    carrcarr.com/asbestos-in-the-u
    Asbestos is still used commercially in brake pads, automobile clutches, roofing materials, vinyl tile, and imported cement pipe and corrugated sheeting.

    Most of the rest of the world manage just fine wih a ban on asbestos use but its too "burdensome" for the US

  8. I will rarely post about work, but because I am interested in a lot of the work being done by people I follow, in the off-chance someone is interested in work I'm involved in, some recent work involves looking at the effectiveness of ISO 45001 and other occupational safety and health certifications. #WorkerSafety #SafetyAtWork
