Everyday. Everywhere I go I see people working at heights not wearing fall protection or the wrong fall protection. Why? #safety #fallprotection

Good info on lung carcinogens. I often see construction workers not wearing at the minimum respirators during the demo phase of renovations. Chronic lung diseases are the number one reason for workplace fatalities in B.C. #safety #asbestos #Canada

What a great support group. Thank you to the people at Threads of Life for your work and commitment. #safety

A big issue in my industry is the use of handheld radios for communication during critical tasks. It’s a bad idea. If you have line of sight always use hand signals. Thanks AgSafeBC. #safety #BC

As I drive home from teaching a Fall Protection class today I see two roofers on a newly constructed condo complex wearing harnesses but not connected to life lines. Where is the supervision... #fallprotection #safety

The emerging cannabis production industry in Canada with have to address worker safety. Indoor growing operations will be the main focus of concern for worker exposure to poor air quality and chemicals. #cannabis

Congratulations to UNB. Very forward thinking. Construction done off-site in a controlled factory-like setting can often lead to cost reductions, faster build times, and a safer work environment. #safety #construction

Nice job Lufthansa. Waiting for my flight from Frankfurt to Dammam, Saudi and watched ground crew work on the tail of a 747. They had a spotter, delineators put out, outriggers deployed, tied off, and wearing correct PPE. #safety

Great initiative by these fire departments. Confined Space engulfment can happen in grain bins, at pulp mills, quarry’s... anywhere one can be trapped beneath a liquid or fine flowing solid. Sadly the Withrow, AB farm deaths are reminder of the dangers. #safety #confinedspace

This is an unfortunate truth. Often a result of a “get er done” attitude. We all need to take a step back and apply basic safety rules to our work. There is a balance. Can get a job done on time or ahead of schedule and in a safe manner. #safety #construction

Great day in Southern Okanagan spent Fall Pro Training for a great winery. 20 degrees Celsius on Nov. 2.

Excellent article from SICA. Provide your employees with a benefit safety net and they will be more inclined to turn their job into a career. And it’s the right thing to do. #safety #BC

STOP WORK AUTHORITY. We all have the right to STOP unsafe work. Just experienced a classic example of work proceeding that was not performed as per procedure. Fortunately equipment loss not injury. If it doesn’t seem right, stop, think, and act. #safety

Great day with the Westbank First Nations. EWP and Confined Space training in support of their Oil and Gas employment program. Good luck to all of the students. #safety #BC #oilandgas

Excellent article from CBS New York. More women in the trades than ever before. A trend north of the border too... and it’s about time. #safety #BC #trades newyork.cbslocal.com/2019/02/27/wom…

Young trades talent shines in Kelowna #Kelowna #trades castanet.net/news/Kelowna/2…

Great news with the Oliver Archives using solar panels to lower its carbon emissions... but... wait... what? Why are the installers clearly 10 feet of the ground with no Fall Protection. Not sure the nice safety vests will help them in a fall. Come on people. Let’s do better.

I have received training in Canada, Texas, Oman, Bahrain, and UAE. Every class ALWAYS plays a Work Safe BC video. And today in Saudi during my Hazard Awareness class of course the instructor played a Work Safe BC video. Congrats WSBC, you are world famous. #worksafebc #safety

Thank you Cally and Paul for an excellent Instructional Skills Development Course in Leduc. I just wish the weather was more cooperative. #safety #BC #AB

SICA in Kelowna , BC has adapted well to Covid19 social distancing requirements. Virtual Instructor Lead Courses are now offered. Receive your AB Fall Pro, OSSA Confined Space, and your OSSA EWP certification from your home office. Response has been exceptional. #trades #safety
