[QUOTE="HBGPreloader, post: 700859, member: 19782"] When inquiring about the new rules, I was told 3 people were killed in yard accidents within the last year. The problem I have is why should I know them? I load package cars. I know that I should use the designated, walkways, doors and break areas. I do not work on vehicles, I do not drive vehicles and the only time I'm in the yard is when there is an evacuation or I'm coming in or going home. I work safe regardless of what management says or does and I don't mind the questions. But, when they tell me to sign a document stating I will comply with these rules, I draw the line. I will not sign a document that will only be enforced when it is convenient for them. A perfect example of why I don't sign it was a few days after I refused to sign the document. When I was on my way into the building one morning, a trailer was dropped and blocking access to the main employee entrance to the facility. The only way I could enter the building is if I walked outside of the designated walkway or craw under the trailer. I was tempted to turn around and go home. But the wife wouldn't be happy about me missing a day's pay. When I mentioned it to a supervisor, he just blew it off. Checkers [/QUOTE]
