Safety is not number one! safety is not the first concern.

2009-03-15View Original

Thread Content

It’s not to oppose others, nor is it to be reactionary or seek attention. It’s just helplessness. According to Maslow’s theory of human needs, the first need is the physiological need for food and clothing, and only then comes the need for safety. In reality, is safety more important than production? No, and it’s absolutely impossible. The reason safety is promoted as being of top priority is that in reality, it cannot be the top priority; in fact, it often comes last.

It is precisely because safety is not given top priority in real life that many accidents that should not have happened occur! Based on this, the Work Safety Law of the People’s Republic of China adopted \"safety first, prevention first\" as the basic principle for work safety management at the time of its enactment. This principle has been stipulated in existing specialized laws; by including it again in the Work Safety Law, it is shown that it is correct ; Second, it indicates that it is applicable to all safety production management. Establishing a principle of giving top priority to safety and prevention in law means that safety must be placed at the forefront of production and business activities; great emphasis must be placed on safe production, and all possible measures must be taken to ensure safety and prevent any accidents that could occur. Production must be safe, as safety is a prerequisite for production. Adhering to the principle of putting safety first and focusing on prevention is a legal obligation and responsibility; it is an issue that must be taken seriously under the law. It is a long-term and fundamental policy that must be upheld in accordance with the law. So we cannot ignore the principle of safety first because of temporary or one-sided actions!

The original poster should not distort concepts or try to attract attention. Maslow had seven theories regarding human needs, but those apply not to production or work; rather, they refer to various concepts related to social activities, and they are completely different from the concept of safety in safe production.

Agree with the third-floor opinion! The actual production process must go hand in hand with safety.

If the person is no longer here, what else can be done? Safety is your own responsibility; you need to be careful!

I agree with what was said on floor 3; what would be the consequences if safety is not taken into account in production? . . . .

Safety comes first, as stipulated by production regulations; life is number one, with everything else coming after that. Why then, in reality, isn’t safety always given top priority? Well, because lives still matter, haha

For an individual, safety comes first. And some managers, in pursuit of maximizing profits, fail to improve safety settings or safety devices. It’s inevitable.

There are things whose value becomes apparent only when you lose them, especially life. Take any of our organs for example – think about what would happen if we lost it. Others might not take safety seriously, but one must

I just want to ask the original poster: How can production take place without safety? ? Safety must be a prerequisite; only with safety can production take place, and production must be safe.

Safety must come first in factory workshops! ! !

I think what the original poster is trying to say is that in our real life, many factories and companies often don’t put safety first; It’s not that the original poster isn’t aware of the importance of safety. :lol

Many people believe that safety serves production; once production is stable, safety is ensured as well. The relationship between production and safety goes without saying – everyone understands it. What the original poster means is that many companies claim to prioritize safety, but in reality they do not truly treat it as a top priority. But I think **the policy is moving toward giving priority to safety; production must not stop, or safety must come first**

It depends on the period; in a state of war, safety may not be the top priority

If one has no life left, what’s there to talk about eating? Survival first, right? Isn’t safety the top priority?

"The phrase “safety first” was first proposed by B.H. Carey, the chairman of the American Steel Company. In 1906, inspired by the series of accidents that had occurred over time, Kerry resolved to break free from this frustrating predicament ; He innovatively altered the business philosophy proposed by the company, changing it from \"quality first, quantity second\" to \"safety first, quality second\". "Third in production volume.” This change in policy ensures the safety of employees while also guaranteeing quality and production levels. Carey’s slogan of \"Safety First\" and his safety measures were successful, causing a stir in the American business community. I agree with the original poster’s view that safety comes first in comparison to production, but often safety is placed after production and quality

Production and safety are interdependent; production must be based on safety. For example, aren’t safety measures necessary before a company starts operations, conducts maintenance, or carries out construction work? Modern society advocates a people-centered approach; what ensures human life? Safe! ! Can you produce without safety prerequisites? Start working? Maintenance? Working with fire? Construction? Similarly, only safety can ensure production! There is no issue of which one comes first or after the other; they complement each other!

I cannot agree with the original poster’s view. How can production be considered more important than safety? This has nothing to do with the argument you cited; production and physiological needs are not equivalent – production is merely a means, with survival as its goal. To use an imperfect analogy, production is merely the spoon we use to eat with. If this spoon is not safe, but instead toxic and capable of causing injury or even death, no one would use it to eat; it should be replaced. Safety and production simply cannot be placed on the same level. Is production more important than safety? No, and it’s absolutely impossible. In fact, most people believe that safety comes first

There is no need to argue about this issue – safety comes first. As for those individuals or organizations that forget to put safety first in certain situations, they will surely have to pay the price for it

Life is only once; you can’t risk it all for such a trivial job~~~ So safety first~~~
