[QUOTE="SafetyFirst, post: 2306120, member: 52115"] it's always a numbers game, realistically the people making a lot of these decisions don't know your name or what kind of person you are. so if mr. runner gunner does what he does on above average production for x amount of years even if it takes ignoring safety to accomplish this, chances are when he does tweak his back or clips some wires in a driveway that accident is less stressful to deal with because it's hopefully a single occasion than a daily lack of production. depending on the circumstances involved in the accident, it still may be overall profitable for the company to ride out the production. this is what happens with a lot of wall street firms who have been fined for all varieties of illegal activities, their fines usually don't even come close to negating the profits they made off of said activity so at the end of the day it's just a cost of doing business.
