No hard hats either. Boy we all need to get a life and not be concerned about this OHS stuff! :woohoo:

I’ll second that motion. Whatever happened to commonsense? Thanks to the Swishman for his current OH&S rule book.

If we had common sense, what would all the bureaucrats do with no rules to dream up, no policies to write, no signs to design, no cosy air-conditioned offices to sit in, no taxpayer funded cars to cruise around in, no inspectors to employ (which would mean not enough work for Judges, etc.) The poor darlings would have wasted their whole university education and might even have to get a real job. :woohoo:

Its pretty hard to ignore when you get fined $500 and suspended from site for a month for getting out of your ute without safety glasses on..........or parking you re ute within 20 m of overhead piping.

Yes Swish, I’ve saved that one, and printed it out, and put in on the safety issues noticed board when I started at 4am, but when I got back in at 6:30 pm it was gone. Some people have no sense of humour, or maybe too close to the bone.

John K, I always wear casual slip ons in the cab, for comfort, got out on a job site, safety officer approached and asked if they were safety boots, I said of course, do you think I’m stupid. He walked away shaking his head. I guess he agreed that I must be stupid. Probably correct.

Swishy, that’s my working footwear also, I’m surprised at the small amount of times I get chipped. Many decades ago when I drove for Spornes Transport, who had immaculate green B model Macks, we had to wear moccasins in the cab, so as not to scratch the floor mats, and carried a little tin of silvafros and brush, to paint the wheel nuts after we had changed a flat out on the road.
