Posted By peter gotch 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

Posted By Merv Newman 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. Merv Newman
