![]() You may think about what you should say to your partner before leaving for work the next day. You may even consider the impact on those persons persons families when dad doesn’t come home again, forever. If you work with cranes and I provide you with a Safety moment describing a crane incident where people have been seriously injured or killed due to complacency of not completing a thorough prestart on your equipment, I’m quite sure that at the very least you will think about that before you commence your work. Perhaps the subject matter when delivering a Safety moment is irrelevant or out of context? The safety moment is the ‘kiss of death’ to safety.Download all your safety moment templates and help desensitize people to safety: We have known about this for centuries, but not Safety. This is how myth/symbol work as puritanical rituals. Like saying ‘grace’ before a meal or praying before undertaking a risk, this is how the ‘safety moment’ works. The safety moment has many religious parallels that are ‘meditative’ in nature, like most invocations and mythical ‘spells’. The myth then becomes the new symbolic truth and yet again we have a new thing thrown into the paperwork mix along with the other collections of mythical nonsense like swiss-cheese, white cards and risk matrices. This is what happens when one is convinced by the delusion of ‘safety saves’ ( ). It is quickly given sacred status and then cannot be eradicated. This is what happens when a myth/symbol is created. So, looks like poor olde safety is lumbered with this nonsense myth of the ‘safety moment’ for the next millennia. Any rejection of a safety myth is interpreted as being anti-safety. Of course, once Safety sacralises a myth, it then cannot be jettisoned. Obsession is demonstration of a mental health disorder. An obsession with safety is not a demonstration of safety ( ). People quickly become desensitized to real safety and real risk ( ) and this starts the embarrassing concoction of every petty safety nonsense reported to fill the safety air. What quickly develops from the so called ‘safety moment’ it its opposite. Such is the inability of safety to understand the basics of trade-offs and by-products ( ). What safety moments demonstrate is absolutely no cognizance of how humans or safety works. This strange mythology supposes that starting every meeting with a ‘safety minute’ or whatever it is called demonstrates ‘safety first’ mentality. Whoever thought this was a good idea knew very little about human neuropsychology. If there was ever a dumb invention to desensitize Safety to safety it was the ‘ safety moment’.
