That's a good article, and they mention jewelry, including rings. I'll never forget what I saw in the safety class for new employees at IH many years ago. I was already real careful about sleeves and loose clothes from doing car engine work. At the IH safety class they showed 2 pictures I remember well. A wedding banded finger with about 2 feet of tendons hanging from it. It was on a drill press chuck. The ring fit right in a groove of the chuck. Violated the "touching moving machinery" rule but it was the ring that got the finger. Second picture the finger looked like the first one. Except it was about 8 feet off the ground on the back of a T-25 dozer, stuck on some kind of groove up there. Salesman had jumped down, but left the finger behind. I put my wedding band in a drawer. --Vic |

First day of auto mechanics class in high school- teacher told us how
fast it'd get hot if we accidentally shorted out the battery terminals, and if it was from a watch we're wearing we'd burn the heck out of our arms. So no watches in class. Wedding rings were not an issue, at least not in my school. |

Those who splash on cologne after lunch probably drank their lunch...more likely to get hurt. Two departments I never wanted to hear from...but eventually did...were punch press and the huge scrap paper baler. Big mean machines! One guy lost an arm reaching into the baler to unjam it whilst it was running. Dept. supervisor who lost a fingertip in p.p. One fella left an Allen wrench in the lathe, turned it on, and shot the wrench right into his safety glasses (which broke)...glass in eyes, small scratch on inside of eyelid but no damage to his eye. Those who got the most of my sympathy were polishers who lost heavy steel parts to the polishing belt and had the part shot back at them at about 90 mph, below the waist. |

You do have to take some responsibility for yourself. Well, she was "dismissed" all right. I totally agree with the personal responsibility aspect. I still believe it's the proverbial "nut behind the wheel" that's the most dangerous part of a car, for example. It's worth noting that there are certain shop safety standards that employees are encouraged to ignore if they wish to remain employed. Changing the part in a lathe while the machine is running is a good example. You can't do that with a chuck of course, only with collets. Go into any production machine shop and you'll find someone at a lathe, popping one part out and the next part in, without ever stopping the machine. It's the only way to meet production demands, and if you don't meet those, you get the pink slip. |

So no watches in class. When I worked in an area that had electronics automated test equipment (chip testers) there was a ban, for everyone entering the floor, on all metal except eye glasses, ear rings, and belt buckles. Kinda silly because most work wasn't any different than working on a PC but they had to do it because there were production people working on the floor. Wedding rings were not an issue, at least not in my school. That's dumb. It's a *lot* more likely to get a ring across a battery than a watch. Rings often get hung up after the normal reaction to shock or explosion (jerk the hand back). |

Yes, there was one auto mechanics teacher and he was the one who told
us to take off our watches. I'm reasonably sure he didn't wear a ring in class. |

I warned a foreman at IH once not to trust a fellow worker around any danger. The guy couldn't even operate a worksaver safely. Plain clumsy. Foreman put him on a Webb roller and he got his arm pulled through, mangling it badly so it was useless. The Webb machine had a safety cable running it's entire length to pop the top roller, but he never hit it. Somebody who was nearby heard him scream, and hit the cable to free him. Probably saved his life. I'm not too in love with myself either, because one time I managed to back myself in a corner hotdogging a worksaver and it rode up on my foot almost to my ankle. Steel toes were required at IH, but not metatarsals. But I wore the same metatarsal shoes I wore at U.S. Steel, where they were required. Only thing that kept that foot from getting mangled. Would have broke every bone on the top of my foot up high. Just limped for a couple days from the bruising. So dress gear is important too. I don't recall ever needing those metatarsals except that once. Once is enough. Don't even have any steel toes anymore, though I sometimes drop something and have to dodge my feet out of the way. I should have some for whenever I do work in the garage. But I probably won't get a pair. No safety boss here. --Vic |

m... "Smitty Two" wrote in message news It's worth noting that there are certain shop safety standards that employees are encouraged to ignore if they wish to remain employed. Yup, seen it with my own eyes, the rules can get weaker and weaker when a job has to be done today or else. And industry will fight like hell to keep it that way too, look at how the coal mining industry is able to keep the law from gaining the teeth it needs to shut down mines with bad safety records. Serious inspectors with the ability to pull the plug or really painful lawsuits seem to be the only things that really get some companies' attention. As the BP disaster proved again, getting tough regulators is hard because of "capture." Many former inspectors end up working for the companies they once inspected, bringing with them a wealth of "work-arounds" and weak points in the inspection system. Sadly, it seems that at least some of the regulators see their work for the Feds as a stepping stone to a much better paying industry job. Same things happens with old Congressmen. They go to work for the MPAA, the RIAA or whomever else their OTJ experience might have a dollar value. They're especially useful in getting pro-industry legislation passed like the DMCA. That botched law makes a surprising number of previously legal activities into crimes and essentially said "you bought it but you don't own it, nor are your fair use rights enforceable." If Congress gleefully cut consumer rights with such ease, imagine how ready, willing and able they are to gut worker's safety laws? Expect to see many more problems like sleeping air traffic controllers as the budget squeezes ever tighter. It will take the modern equivalent of a Triangle Shirtwaist Fire to turn the trend around. Or two jumbo jet colliding over a major city. As a kid I remember bicycling over to see the wreckage of a mid-air collision over Brooklyn, NYC. With today's huge planes and fuel loads, a similar disaster (I believe it was a Connie and a 707 back then) would likely cause 10 times the casualties on the ground. When we cut back on regulation and inspection, the death rate from accidents will climb. -- Bobby G. |

As far as mid-airs, we have a decent automated TCAS (traffic collision avoidance system) these days that doesn't rely on air traffic controllers. The standard "see and avoid" responsibility of pilots is commendable, but when you're flying 600 mph, other planes go from barely perceptible specks in the sky to filling your windscreen in seconds. |

They go the other way too, if memory serves Bush appointed a mining industry lobbyist to be in charge of the National Parks--gotta wonder if he turned his knowledge of the industry to keeping the parks intact or if he thought the appointment was an extension of his old job. Obama has also brought lots of folks from industry into govt., which might be okay if their portfolios go into blind trusts and they're barred from returning to industry for at least several years after they leave govt. No wonder legislation so often just happens to line up with what industry wants. |

It's just too bad that we have taken this to such an extreme, so far away from the intent of those who wanted to guarantee us our "rights". Ahh, the liberal bent. Steve, who is right |

Confined space entry is one of the longest and most complicated sections in OSHA regs. I had to formulate a company policy on it when I was in safety, and I had those yearly CDs. The section was HUGE, and the intricacies were many. Just by doing confined space entry alone, you violate OSHA, high work probably the same, it's been twenty plus years since I was in safety.

The standard "see and avoid" responsibility of pilots is commendable, but when you're flying 600 mph, other planes go from barely perceptible specks in the sky to filling your windscreen in seconds. We've had an awful lot of close calls lately. The huge airbus spinning the small jet on the JFK runway and the 1st lady's near miss with a 200 ton military cargo jet occurred in the last week or two. The FAA chief has ordered a top-down safety review. http://www.dallasnews.com/business/a...rol-system.ece ""Incidents of near misses and close calls, and serious mishaps that have been reported - I am just a little concerned that our luck may be running out," Mica, the chairman of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, said in an interview Thursday." With bigger and bigger jets carrying more passengers all flying to major urban centers, the law of averages is at work and sooner or later, you'll have another Tenerife where two jumbos collide and lots of people die. March 27, 1977- KLM Flight 4805 and Pan Am Flight 1736, both Boeing 747s, collide on the runway in the Tenerife disaster (Los Rodeos Airport) Tenerife Canary Islands; 583 of 644 people on board both aircraft are killed in the worst accident in the history of commercial aviation. At Tenerife, collateral damage was limited because the two planes were still at the airport. There's a good list at Wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...i al_aircraft including the details of the mid-air collision I remember as a kid: December 16 - The 1960 New York air disaster: United Airlines Flight 826, a Douglas DC-8, and TWA Flight 266, a Lockheed Super Constellation, collide in mid-air over Staten Island in New York; all 128 aboard the two planes and six people on the ground are killed. While I agree that collision avoidance avionics have improved tremendously since the 1960 crash, planes just keep getting bigger and bigger and the airspace more and more crowded. The articles about the JFK crash mentioned that the Airbus that was involved was so large that special precautions had to be taken for every take-off and landing. To me, that's just asking for trouble. -- Bobby G. |
