UK | Madness Having worked in the industry for a couple of decades, done some roof top work myself, although nothing as dramatic as the picture shown, I've always maintained that; No one should die, so that someone else can make a phone call.
Sadly, not everyone I've come across shares that view with profit overriding common sense so that undue pressure is applied on those risking their lives.
I've witnessed on to many occasions pressure with comments such as "We must get it built on time" and "I don't care - do whatever it takes"
Fortunately in my personal experience, no one has ever been seriously hurt as a result. However, I hear when they do, the pressurisers say things along the lines of "Well, I never told them to do x or y" and "They were fully trained and equipped for safety"
How these people sleep at night is beyond me. |
