024893EETD62While the steps are being built in front of B90, the construction workers have taped off the area we used to use, to walk to the shuttle stop.
We would walk behind the power poles. Now we are forced to walk in front of them and having to cross over the electrical cords plugged into the cars.
This is a major tripping hazard. We either have to be careful about not tripping, or having to go around the parked cars, out into the roadway.
Either way is dangerous.
Can the construction workers move the tape?
Or, speed up completing the steps.
I mentioned this to Steve Greenberg and he gave me the Safety Card.

It involves encapsulating asbestos / lead used in old building materials. it is a very effective and safe procedure that Rob Connelly enthusiastically endorses. Instead of calling an abatement company to clean up certain areas around the hill, we, the Paint Shop, can use this new technique to handle at least 50% of the work we now sub out. Saving big money and performing the job safely with very little if any client disruption. A great idea.true

001688ALS18An ALS manager was concerned about a facility employee working too high on a ladder. Being one of the safety staff at the ALS I went to speak with this fellow about the concern. Explaining the situation and knowing nothing about ladder training I asked the facility worker to teach me how to work safely on a ladder. Also what types of ladders he uses and what the height restrictions required are for the variety of tasks he performs daily.
My approach was well received and he provided information that was helpful in understanding that he was in fact following the correct procedures and was working safely within the height limits of the ladder he was using. He said it was the right thing to do to “stop work” and have a discussion about ladder safety. I confirmed with his supervisor that we had the conversation and the supervisor also affirmed that his employee is a cautious person who takes safety seriously and plans carefully before doing any work.
During our monthly ALS safety meeting Mike Martin presented me with the card saying my efforts to resolve the issue were worthy of receiving the “safe-ing the day!” recognition. Safety is our number one priority, so I’m assuming it won’t be long before I pass the card on to another person working at ALS.
