Topic: “Safety in the Workplace:  Why is it Important?”

We have all heard horror stories about accidents in the workplace.  How can we stop these accidents from happening?  By always being aware of what is going on around us and practicing good safety procedures in the workplace, we can make our work environment safer.  With enough practice, these safety skills will become second nature.  Sometimes it may be uncomfortable to wear safety goggles or tie back long hair but it would be more uncomfortable to have an accident and have to deal with the results.

Please discuss some of the safety procedures you use around the house.  Why is it important, even in the home, to practice safety?  How does this relate to the work environment?
