Posted By Richard Chalkley A friend of mine ran up a ladder on a construction site as he had seen something unsafe going on. Failed to check the ladder and it sank into the ground which was soft due to the mornings rain. (The ladder had been left there, it was not meant for access). It sank below what was propping it up, tipped forward and unceremoniously dumped him in the mud below the scaffolding caused by the mornings rain.

Posted By Lyndon Sutcliffe Yes, I totally agree. Some smart person in HR has decided to resurrect the company newletter. I am a against a tight deadline and I need something short and snappy to get my point across.

Posted By Pamela Marshall I've used this on a poster. I got the scenario from a lecturer on my Diploma course. Which should be reported? Question: Which of these events should be reported? Event One A pile of (redundant) loose bricks has been left on a roof parapet following maintenance. It’s a windy day and 2 of the bricks fall, landing in the carpark. Event Two An hour later, another couple of bricks fall, this time hitting a car parked in the car park resulting in minor damage. Event Three Half an hour later, 2 personnel are walking into the builidng. 4 bricks fall off – one hits one employee’s arm causing slight bruising. Another brick hits the other employee on the head causing them to be knocked unconscious. Which of these 3 events should be reported? Answer: All of them. If the first one had been reported, and the location made safe, the other 2 events shouldn't have happened.
