WHAT SAFETY IN DESIGN IS NOT
. Safety in Design legislation is NOT asking us to populate long risk registers with standard safety issues or report on other people's standard duties. . It is NOT asking us to take on liability where we shouldn't be. . It is NOT meant for occasional use, but is is also NOT asking us to waste our valuable time on words that won't make a difference. . |
|
QUITE THE OPPOSITE
. Safety in Design legislation is asking us to help find the unusual safety issues which need our attention. The ones which could be hiding in even the most standard of design projects AFTER we had complied with the known safety rules. . It is asking us to share that information and help manage the safety conversation positively. IT IS A LEGISLATED PROFESSIONAL COLLABORATION TOOL. . It is placing a duty on us so lives can be saved. Yet it limits that duty where we DON'T have the reasonable capacity to do so. . And within that POSITIVE DUTY, sits an extraordinary opportunity for us: To build more collaborative teams and solve an even wider range of pressing problems in our design practices and in our communities. . |
