Narrator: [Health and Safety at Work
Prevention Starts Here
But It Doesn’t End Here]
Telling people to work in a safe and healthy way isn't all there is to being a supervisor.
[Workers performing tasks using workplace equipment, supervisors having discussion with workers]
Sometimes people want to take shortcuts because they think it will help them get the job done faster.
Sometimes they're tired or they're having a bad day.
There will be days when you are tired too.
But you need to be a role model for safety at all times.
[Workers and supervisors performing tasks and wearing personal protective equipment]
When you are around the people you supervise you need to follow the workplace safety procedures, wear your personal protective equipment and stay safe.
If you don't do those things, others will think it's OK to ignore the workplace safety procedures.
People are watching you and learning from what you do.
How you supervise the work.
The way you think about the work and talk about it can affect the safety of the people you supervise.
