Hi all
I started the day working from home whilst Plumber Pat and my black and white dog checked the quality of his repair.
Too much stuff in my laptop bag, so I attempted to put "Health and Safety at Work" in alongside the laptop, catching it so that my finger sustained paper cut.
"The IP (a qualified H&S professional) was injured by a safety magazine.....he had not made a suitable and sufficient assessment..."
Forutnately it's not reportable.
Regards, Peter

even if it turns septic and requires hospitalisation and more than 3 days off work, and spreads resulting in, well, death ? Just a (cheery) thought.

But not including today!
Well there was no way I could do that as my SHP came all stuck together as the guillotine at the printers was obviously not lined up properly maybe quality control were on the golf course!

Some years back I got a letter from a person who claimed that my book was too heavy and he had let it fall on his foot whilst reading it. I think it was a fun letter!!
I wrote back that I was sorry he had found the book sleep-inducing.

I've seen and heard a number of these over the years - including trainers injured delivering safe lifting courses and a safety officer left dangling from a high-level window that he was trying to 'black out' for a film presentation when the ladder slipped away from under him. I still recall the incident when my school PE teacher told us to observe him demonstrating how to climb a rope and finished up on the floor surrounded by the pieces of his broken watch. Watch out!; you are being observed.

I cant do the latin, but this seems to be a "who keeps the keeper" thread.
My first ever safety manager once showed a film on eye injuries. Very Nasty. Next monday he came in with a bandage over his eye - working under his car.
Another memory is of our european safety director, who had his office at the site where I was then safety manager. openening the pages of his copy of The Times one morning he managed to scratch his cornea.
Last one for today - having been nominated as safety manager at a larger site I went to the job interview on crutches - having broken an achilles tendon playing squash. Got the job.
No, I'll give you another - last year I went to a sales meeting at a fairly small company - turned up on crutches as I had broken the other achilles tendon when a wheelbarrow tipped over in the garden. Got the job.
Qualifications and/or experience ? Whatever, We are not immune.
