Safety  Newsletter - August 2007

Are you prepared?

By Steven Powell

 

“Just because you trained for something doesn't mean you prepared for it. “  Anonymous

 Driving/Safety:  You have been trained, are you prepared? 

What does it take to be prepared to do your job?  Training is the beginning, but preparation and a positive attitude will accomplish the goal.  As you begin each day, do you take time to focus on the end results of your actions at the end of the day?  Stephen Covey says in his book “7 Habits of Highly Effective People” to “begin with the end in mind.” 

 Are you starting the day, the week, the month with your goals in mind?  Are you preparing yourself at the beginning of each day to do your best and make sure that you are not going to have problems because you have failed to take care of yourself or your equipment? 

 Begin your day visualizing yourself finishing up having done your best. 

 Ø       Mark your log to make sure you know how much time you have left to avoid violating D.O.T. regulations.

Ø       Walk around your equipment every time that you get out and before you get in to ensure that there are no “surprises.”

Ø       Keep a cushion of space around the vehicle at all times when driving to leave yourself an “out” when other drivers cause problems.

 And most importantly – get to your destination safely and let your loved ones know you have completed another safe day at work.

 Yes – Safety does save lives!
