Safety – Showing You Care by Safety Speaker John Drebinger

January 26, 2011

How do you show you care about the safety of others? As I mentioned yesterday, I was the safety speaker at a safety meeting in Indiana. Before I left the meeting, several people wished me the typical, “Have a safe trip home.” Several others admonished me to be careful in the snow. I thanked them and went on my way.

I know these were not mere words because of something someone did about 4 hours later. It was then that I received a call from the person who had selected me to be the safety speaker for the meeting. He wanted to make sure I made it to the airport safely. That phone call tells me he was truly concerned for my safety.

Think to yourself ways you can follow-up that will convey to everyone around you that you really do care and that safety is one of your core values.
