  • Most people are aware that health and safety is important, but for whatever reasons, precautions are regularly ignored. This video shows how very simple changes to workplace activity can avoid life changing harm or injury and the importance of health and safety at work.
    00:00 A real life example of injury caused by poor measures
    00:43 Workers' rights
    00:54 Personal responsibilities
    01:26 Risk assessment in our personal lives
    02:19 Example of injury over a period of time
    02:56 Managing risk in a work environment
    04:37 Keeping the workplace as safe as possible
    It also shows how we all do our own risk assessments in our personal lives, so carrying them out at work is just a continuation of these. Although responsibility for health and safety primarily lies with the management, everyone has their role to play in looking after themselves and others.

    This is a brilliantly done informative video - shows how taking sensible precautions and doing risk assessments can help immensely. Great stuff to be applied to most work situations.

    As a worker in the uk it is pretty much impossible to get health and safety at work , it is ignored by most company’s without a union in place. You can’t even call a person at HSE to discuss serious breaches at work. You are on your own and bosses know and exploit this. I have been told by my works manager that health and safety doesn’t count until you get caught.

      There are specific rules regards to approaching HSE, and to be a whistleblower. Whistleblowing on health and safety is difficult to be and do. But, both points require a record of mis-action, deliberate inaction, mis or non recording, bullying, threat of dismissal over non compliance. Essentially anything failing Employer Duties, Sec2 of 1974 Act, and Reg 3 and 7 of MHSW 1999 are grounds to report to the boss, and then to HSE if failure to decisively change for the better, or just remain negligent or criminal. IF you see a potential of someone to be killed from a deliberate action, you can report to HSE and/or the Police for criminal prosecution.

      It's often a mouse, but there are other devices such as trackballs and touchpads that people use.
