[QUOTE="BoogaBooga, post: 192981, member: 4600"] Leave it to the knucklehead management persons to try to discipline employees over safety. We had the same threat here, but they backed off after our local said, "Maybe a requirement to new drivers in training, but this is not in the contract, and it will be grieved immediately." The safety committee stepped up and came up with a contest to diffuse tensions, and learn all the information. In hindsight, one safety section at a time should have been added to everyones' safety knowledge, instead of throwing all five sections at us and overwhelming people. There is a tremendous cost to the company AND the employee when there is an accident or injury. Statistically the more safety knowledge an employee has, the number of accidents and injuries is greatly reduced. But safety is an attitude that should be encouraged in a positive learning enviroment. Management should exhaust ALL learning techniques, and the safety committee should be informed and asked for input, before talking to an employee about difficulty in learning and reciting from memory, safe working and driving habits.
