Posted By ITK Whilst off sick from work with the flu I have to endure daytime TV, imagine my surprise when "This Morning" want stories from people whose councils have had swings and slides removed because they are high risk, or councils that have taken away hanging baskets because they may fall on someones head. Will these stories ever go away, how are we supposed to spread the gospel when we are ridiculed on a daily basis?

Posted By David P Johnson Yes. Well, I suggest all who can watch the show do so - the IOSH President is on (see the press release on this website) defending our honour!

Posted By Damian Bryan I thought that Lawrence Waterman defended our corner extremely well against the ill-informed presenters. He reminded them, the audience and perhaps all safety professionals that sensible risk management is key, and that we as safety professionals are here to help, not hinder.

Posted By ITK Well I bet he feels as though he ought not to have bothered when being asked about sports days being banned for promoting competativeness and teddy bears as prizes promoting gambling in children. The researchers should be sacked. Phillip couldnt help having a dig at Health and Safety whilst linking to the next article about jewellery boxes.
