The Ying and the Yang: A Friend of Production
Can Be a Foe of Safety
Produce, produce, produce! That’s the mantra
leaders and workers hear today. But at what
cost? You might meet your production goals, but
none of that matters if three people were
hospitalized this week or worse. Laura Stack,
who has consulted for nearly 20 years in the
field of productivity, offers a cautionary tale
for safety meetings around the 5 Foes of Safety:
FAST, FOCUS, FATIGUE, FAMILIARITY, and FAULTY
COMMUNICATION. Through funny illustrations,
videos, and exercises, Laura demonstrates to
workers that the friends of productivity
(efficiency, focus, and self-care) can be the
foes of safety (speed, distraction, and
exhaustion) and reminds them to put SAFETY
FIRST.
