Ok. Let me think this through before I answer.

I'm anxiously awaiting your reply.

Who is responsible to hold the sort sups accountable to doing their jobs to ensure safe work methods are followed?

Management is, but the culture created by you safety guys puts the concerns in the wrong place.

They gave our guys extra room to put the freaking furniture sets we allow in our system. Prior to that we had to have a bulk car at the end of the belt to put the oversized pieces in and then re-run them at the end of the sort.

Here's a safety tip. Build a new building for centers who have outgrown their building before we even allowed over 70s/oversized boxes. Because egress probably wasn't an issue when we really were a small package company.

I thought you said you were able to maintain adequate egress. Are you having difficulty maintaining egress compliance?

Nope, we found a solution. But you safety guys, look at one thing, not the big picture. It was overkill for a solution that worked.

You should know that one, "Get the big picture" gotta make sure our drivers know that.

The desire to ignore those who talk a good game yet do little to nothing to effect change also comes from within.

Whoa!

That's heavy, Dude.

What level of management is directly responsible to hold the sort sups accountable to ensure safe work methods are followed?

Are you saying safe work methods aren't being followed? But they're rostered, signed, and in the book. They have to be followed in that case, right?

How would approach ups completely disregarding Osha and DOT laws pertaining to meal.

Not sure what you mean can you elaborate a little?

 

[Integrity]

Good thing we all have those management commitment statement signed and in the book. That clearly fixed all the issues.

What do you think is the purpose of these management commitment statements. For the commitments not to be kept?

What do you mean you safety guys?

Safety Auditors/observations measure culture they don't create it.

I do know a little about Space and Visibilty training however what does that have to do with egress compliance? You complained about an overkill. We're you given a reason why these additional platforms are required?

Drivers being told to take break while still operating a company vehicle?

What is your point you are trying to get at here?

Forced to work through lunch and break?

 

[Brownslave688]

Pot meet kettle.

 

[Integrity]

Here I thought I was both pompous and arrogant. You nailed both in just one sentence.

I don't think that way about you at all. You obviously have your struggles but don't be so hard on yourself.

 

[Brownslave688]

Forced to work through lunch and break?

Driving the company vehicle is work correct?

 

[Integrity]

?

 

[Integrity]

Driving the company vehicle is work correct?

On clock yes. Please give more specifics to the circumstance that you refer.

 

[Integrity]

Gotta go. May be back later.
