[QUOTE="Catatonic, post: 1185688, member: 7966"] Many have and I'm sure they feel like I do. UPS takes safety into consideration in the workplace. - They have wide wheel bases on the chairs so when we have chair races no one tips over. - They removed all wheels from side tables to keep the table from flying our from underneath them when you sit on the edge of the table. - The carpets have good padding so if you go to sleep in the chair and fall out you do not suffer head injuries. - There are non-skid mats in front of the free coffee machines to ensure people do not slip down. - There are periodic fire drills and free ice cream at the meeting places to motivate employees to hurry to their report spot. As always, it's up to the employee to ensure safety in their area. - I always make sure the cords for my iPad, fan and portable refrigerator of tucked away and out of the walk areas. - I installed a seat belt on my chair to keep be from falling over when I nap. - I keep my headphones positioned so I can hear the fire alarms and such over the music I listen to all day. - I keep my scissors pointed down in a holder to ensure i don't stab myself when opening a drawer. - I knurl the edges of printouts to reduce the chances of paper cuts.
