Someone asked me, besides walking around the factory, what else can you do in EHS? Oh my God, I feel like crying... To work in safety, one needs to have the following skills: knowledge of production processes, knowledge of hazardous chemicals, knowledge of electrical systems, knowledge of machinery, knowledge of fire safety, knowledge of emergency response, knowledge of hygiene, knowledge of environmental protection, as well as knowledge of administrative matters. One must also be able to write, use computers, do design work, take photographs, communicate effectively, provide training, offer consultation, understand regulations and standards, be able to assess people’s capabilities, be willing to make sacrifices, stay up late, endure hunger, get up early, and handle stress. Patience and attention to detail are essential, along with the ability to cope with busy times and quiet periods. Additionally, one needs to know how to serve others. Anyone who has worked in this industry for a few years probably becomes wise and sees through the illusions of the world. Do you really think working in EHS is easy? ........ When it comes to EHS, we are serious! ! !
They keep saying that safety comes first and that it’s very important, but whenever there’s a conflict between safety and production, the latter is always chosen. This is reality.
Agree with the original poster’s view; being responsible for safety is really tough
Yes, safety is always compromised in favor of production; it’s too difficult. If you raise issues, the managers don’t address them, and if you don’t raise any issues, they will scold you
Hahaha, the boss thinks you just went for a little walk
The boss not only thinks you’re just wandering around with nothing to do, but you also interfere with his normal production and earnings
