I talk with small business owners about their safety program and the usual response is that they are the safety person, using their authority or pointing t a whip, and then shaking it saying, 'this is my safety reminder!' Many sites have no quality training what so ever. Employees will open up 240 volt dedicated electrical boxes to turn of gate switches, not realizing the potential for arc flashes, or not keeping a MSDS list of chemicals at a site. Chemicals can potentially harm another person when used without knowing. So yes, keeping others reminded of the need for safety at small business sites is a good thing so that everyone can go home at the end of the day!
