Safety. What’s not to like? On the surface, it’s impossible to argue against, it is after all the Universal Good. Sadly, it also enables way too many of the wrong sorts of people to manufacture careers out of making mountains out of molehills in the “safety space”.
One of the more amusing arguments I was fortunate to witness was between two such safety “luminaries” as to whether day glo orange or the yellow hi vis vest should be the company standard. Two grown men fighting over the merits of a particular colour vest to be supplied. Events like these make me happy to be retired.
