Much of safety prevention and cure could be eliminated by eliminating or minimizing activities. This may sound facetious but there is a good basis for it.
Cutting out unnecessary driving lowers chances of a crash.
Outsourcing infrequent specialty work avoids having inexperienced and unskilled workers on a task.
There is a good current example that is easy to understand.
In today's issue of Go Lackawanna, from Scranton PA, there is an Associated Press article about problems that occur for lottery winners. There are law suits from people who claim to have a piece of the ticket in a lottery pool. The lottery pool ticket buyer may claim that the winning ticket was not bought as part of the pool. There can be false claims. There can be claims that are not clear. In one case a nine year pool member, Jeanette French, was not at work the day the money was collected for what became the winning ticket. That case is still being litigated.
There are many controls that can be implemented. French's lawyer, Eric Shane of Miami, said "My true advice, honestly, would be don't do a pool."
Keep that in mind when writing a safety plan.
