BE SAFEBE ALERTFOR YOUR FAMILY’S SAKE, CHOOSE TO BE PRO-ACTIVE!

What is important to you? IS IT….*Arriving at work healthy, doing your job safely, and then going home to your family?

*Being SAFE on the job, so that every day you can come home and BE THERE for your family?

IS IT….

Lifting SAFELY so that you can go home and play the sports that you usually do OR dance however you want to?

OR IS IT….

Taking an EFFORT to work SAFELY EACH DAY so that you can be with family on Special occasions like these?

ASK YOURSELF…. HOW CAN I DO THIS?

PRO-ACTIVE SAFETY

Being PRO-ACTIVE in safety means asking yourself the following questions: What can I do to prevent accidents or unsafe incidents

so that I can go home healthy each day?

How can I help my co-workers in being safe?

Being Pro-Active means doingthe right thing. YOU DECIDE….

Safe Lifting: You see a co-worker struggling to pick up a bin of glass at the hopper. What do you do? Do you watch them

struggle?

Do you ask them if they need help?

Do you approach the supervisor to see if there are better ways of moving this material?

Blocked Aisles: You see a person picking up and placing material in an aisle that is blocking the entire aisle-way. What do you do? Do you just let them leave

the material there?

Do you stop them and ask them if they can find a better place for it?

Being Pro-Active also includes production and quality!

HOW DO THESE 2 QUALITY ISSUES RELATE TO SAFETY?

PRINTING: You are printing a run of 2500 glass slides and notice that a large pin-hole has appeared on the screen after the first 100 slides. What do you do? Do you keep printing the

2500-lot run?

Do you STOP what you are doing and notify someone?

PACKING: You are packing glass that has unusual black powdery dots on the top of the printed slide. You have never seen this before. What do you do? Do you keep packing

glass? Do you take the time to

question what the black dots are?

The point is….

TAKE THE EFFORT TAKE THE TIME DO WHAT IS RIGHT!

CORRECT SITUATIONS “ON-THE-SPOT” to prevent a worse situation.

You are IN CONTROL

If you SEE SOMETHING that is NOT RIGHT REPORT IT IMMEDIATELY! DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT! TELL SOMEONE (ANYONE)!

Choose to be PRO-ACTIVE!
