Safety is everybody's job - means nobody is responsible!
Normal meaning from management point of view for
responsibility is ‘duty to accomplish the task’. However, when it comes to
workplace safety & health, responsibility acquires a greater and larger
scope and extends beyond to mere completion of task. To improve safety,
employee at all levels need to extend responsibility beyond normal meaning of
it. Every person should demonstrate visible commitment for safety as his/her
responsibility and must ensure that it is integrated with each activity being
performed. Working to reduce injury or occupational illness should not be seen
as responsibility of safety person employed with an organisation but it is
applicable to all employee who execute the work or who get the work executed.
It is fairly a challenge at the end of safety professionals and corporate
leaders to build the kind of work culture that enables or facilitates
responsibility for safety. Safety within the organisation will improve if a
worker does an activity with a self-directed state of mind that he/she is
responsible to complete it without injury and supervisor is facilitating
him/her as his/her responsibility.
In order to bring a total safety culture within
an organisation, the mind-set that includes following behaviours reflects
responsibility for safety in true sense:
1. 1. @safetitude: I am responsible for safety means 'I actively
take care of my colleagues'.
2. @safetitude: I am responsible for safety means ' I understand all the hazards related to my workplace/workarea'.
3. @safetitude: I am responsible for safety means' I plan for safety when I plan for any task to be executed or get done by team'.
4. @safetitude: I am responsible for Safety means 'I ensure that my team members are aware of the hazards associated with the activity they undertake and are encouraged to take precautions to avoid injury'.
5. @safetitude: I am responsible for safety means ' I do more than what is required as minimum by law -and do not mind going beyond call of duty to ensure no-injury situation'.
6. @safetitude: I am responsible for safety means ' I take care of the family of my team members by way of providing safety at the work'.
