With this goal of safety on our minds, I believe the bottom line of the emphasis on safety could be considered to be the training that each of us receives in our first weeks on the job as well as the training provided on a regular basis throughout each year of our employment with M-Global, so that we are always aware of how to operate in a safe manner. The training vehicle gives the company the mechanism to provide each of you with the means to become aware of the elements of safety that relate to the specific needs and requirements of your own particular job. Therefore, at this time I have come to the conclusion in the process of the new corporate emphasis on safety to our particular branch that we need to give much greater scrutiny and analysis to the way we can prevent accidents and emphasize the concern of safety at every stage of our operation for every employee. Toward this end, I have asked the training coordinator, Kendra Jones, to assemble a written training program that will involve all employees which will be implemented beginning no later than June of this year. When the plan has been written and approved at the various levels within the office, I will conduct a meeting with every department in order to discuss all details of the safety program.…
For the purpose of this essay I went to the local mall to observe what hazards there are. I am going to assess the hazards that I identified in this setting and I am going to make some recommendations in relation to the identified hazards to minimise the risk to the service users. According to Excalibur Solicitors ‘There are some common shopping centre accidents that can include the slip accident in the shopping centre at the place where the floor was left wet after being mopped and cleaned. Problems with the escalators and elevators are also one of the causes of common shopping centre accidents.’ The hazards that I identified in the shopping mall included, wet floors, hot food, drinks and hot surfaces, metal knives and forks in the reach of young children, escalators and also the railings on the higher floors.…

There are several solutions that could help the facility reduce accidents. The most cost effective solution is to ensure management commitment. Management should stress the importance of safety for the residents and the importance of the safety of the workers. Management should require full cooperation from employees. Improvements to safety and ergonomics should take financial priority. Items like weight belts, sliding boards and geri-chairs are relatively inexpensive compared to the amount of injuries caused by the stress of moving and repositioning residents. Employees should be required to complete additional and more effective training. Management should discuss this commitment with the employees and allow them to voice concerns as well as give suggestions to increase the productivity of the safety program.…

Safety is an important concept to those of all ages and must be reminded of at all times. There are several different types of people who ensure safety for the public. Many believe that these types of people only include those such as police officers, firefighters and doctors. However, there is much more to it. Those you see every day contribute to helping you live a safe life. One of these types of people include crossing guards. They are usually seen as people whom just help others cross the road, but the work they do is valuable. Crossing guards are significant people that provide several advantages such as saving one’s life, protecting others’ lives and preventing extra costs.…

Raising the Roof has built their organizational narrative in a way that promotes authenticity by using character and time to their advantage. By manipulating characters and time within their narrative, Raising the Roof has been able to stand back and remove themselves from the narrative, and allow people who have experienced homelessness become the narrators. Because the narrator within a story often influences character, by allowing homeless people to become the narrators, bias is illuminated and stereotypes are dissolved. Raising the Roof allows the story to be told from the perspective of the organizations significant others. Also, by manipulating time and simply making people aware of what Raising the Roof believes the…
The Hyatt Regency walkway collapse can be considered as one of the most costly (in terms of human life) in American History. On July 17, 1981, two suspended walkways within the atrium area of the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Kansan City collapsed. In this report the most probable causes of this disaster were investigated. Documents such as drawings, specifications, and test reports were studied to find the causes. As built, three suspended walkways spanned the atrium at second, third and fourth floor levels and connected the other two sections of the building. The second floor walkway was suspended from that of fourth floor walkway which was directly above it and suspended directly from the atrium roof. In the collapse, the second and fourth floor…
