White freight liner blues

September 5, 2018 by Bernard Corden Leave a Comment

White freight liner blues During the 1950s, the delivery of bread, cream and milk was categorised as an essential community service and legislation was enacted to secure supply.

Toward Zero, A Failed Goal

December 27, 2016 by Dr Rob Long 1 Comment

Toward Zero, A Failed Goal Generally when people set goals that fail, they reassess their goal and reframe the goal and seek a goal that is achievable and sense-able. This is the logic of SMART goals (https://safetyrisk.net/understanding-safety-goals/, https://safetyrisk.net/a-better-safety-goal-than-zero-harm/, https://safetyrisk.net/zero-incident-goals-motivate-risk-taking/ ). Generally, people who set goals consider the psychological by-products of that goal, to make sure […]

Desensitisation–the by-product of ill-conceived safety initiatives

April 21, 2016 by Dave Collins 7 Comments

Desensitization – the by-product of ill-conceived safety initiatives As Gerald Wilde puts it in “Target Risk 3”: “Also, they may simply have been blinded by their zeal to do something quick and easy for safety – and thus doing nothing for it.” Just like many years ago we learned to ignore the sound of car […]

June 24, 2015 by Dave Collins 4 Comments

A creative safety initiative but beware of the by-products Video of this “life saving” road safety initiative by Samsung has gone viral on Youtube. I can understand that, its a pretty cool idea.
