Taken out of service for not knowing safety dribble?

[QUOTE="PTSup4-2long, post: 366788, member: 16101"] 2 supervisors terminated and 3 hourlies under termination at our center right now for not knowing the safety "dribble". Supervisors have to know 5 to 10 times as much and must be able to recite up to 3 full pages of junk from memory -- word for word. It's ridiculous. We sups are told regularly to discipline our employees for failure to pass the CSA questions. If I actually did that, I'd be loading 4 car positions every single day because HR can't hire new folks fast enough. I think general knowledge of the safety expectations is sufficient--with maybe an annual test. Sometimes accidents happen. Maybe I'm too naive or trusting, but I don't think anyone really wants to be injured. Knowing or not knowing the safety questions makes no difference if you aren't actually putting them into practice. [/QUOTE]
