(published on LinkedIn) Two massive fire accidents occurred late at night on 26th May 2024 Actions Taken: a) Owners of both businesses, Mr. Nitin and Mr. Navin, were arrested. b) No Fire NOC (No Objection Certificate) was obtained. c) Safety norms were not complied with. d) Fire exits were obstructed. e) Fire systems were non-functional, among other issues. Incidents: A baby care hospital in NCR Delhi, where 7 newborn babies died. A gaming zone in Rajkot, Gujarat, where 33 lives were lost. Reflection: Whatever actions are taken in the aftermath, can they compensate for the lost precious lives? Never, and they are also not adequate to avoid repetition in the future. It's the same pattern of actions and reactions! Addressing the Root Cause: How can we improve on the root cause of these accidents? Here is my opinion on the way forward: Administrative Responsibility : It is primarily the responsibility of the administration to ensure that fire...
Safetitude Pays in Every Way! No matter where you are and what you are doing, keep safetitude as your protecting shield. As optimistic attitude is everything to you for good, pro safety (safetitude)attitude is to avert anything bad you never plan, you never desire or you never expect of.

While at training session, in order to grop the mind of participants, I find a order to safety like first, prime, paramount etc. When you start with such mindset, you are unknowingly treating safety a separate subject. The right prospect of seeing Safety is actioning with safety in demand at the time. Let safetitude be a step of a way forward!

S A F E T I T U D E P327: Safetyzpick! When someone performs the best, becomes wise or learn to improve? Many of us see many things around us daily and pass on our judgment based on the current frame. This is a fact that what we see anything in present context is a very small section of whole of the development that happened behind. This thought of mine came after seeing the performance of Avinash Sable (from India), the Silver Medal winner in 3000 mtrs steeplechase in CWG-2022. How it gained the prominence is historic in the sense that he broke the convention of podium sweep by Kenyan sprinters for many years. We hardly can imagine of his toil before now. Coming from a very simple background, he himself broke his national record many times in the past. I strongly believe that if you call it a success then how it is achieved is a matter of befitting case to learn about the ingredients of a success. Rest to find out by ...
