ACRE Safety Thought #02

Safety is as much an “attitude” as it is a “set of rules.” Researchers and other ACRE users should consider safety training for themselves and employees. Then practice safety. Jim Beaty’s #1 reason that you should think about safety; “I care about everyone’s life and health. You should care about yours’ and your workers too.” Jim’s #2 reason; “I don’t want to have to call or face a loved one with bad news about a death or injury. It would break my heart. You don’t either.” Plan, think, train, and work safely at the ACRE. Thanks. Jim (First published in December 2008 in the weekly Purdue Agronomy Newsletter)
