Battling Complacency – Picture This

What is wrong in this picture? Complacency at work can cause or contribute to critical errors which increase the probability of injury, from not having your eyes or mind on the task, walking into the line of fire, or losing your balance, traction or grip.

Always examine equipment, procedures and the hazards that may exist. You need to focus physically and mentally on your work, no matter how many times you may have done the same job in the past.

Moral: Awareness is something that must be a part of each of us. If you are not thinking about what could go wrong every day, all day while you work, you are not completing the task safely.
