Your opinion on HSE

Hi.

I was curious about peoples opinion of HSE, especially in the context of the modern workplace.

It seems to be mostly nonsense. Or it seems to be about covering the asses of the management in case something actually happens at work, not really about keeping people safe. Mostly the solutions are to sign another piece of paper.

Especially the idea that every large accident is a consequence of a lot of small incidents that accumulates. This idea just seems made specifically to blame the people on the bottom of the hierarchy whenever something occurs.

Anyways. HSE useful or not?

Edit: HSE - Health, safety and environment.

LibertyLizard ,

Maybe you should define HSE? I have no idea what that stands for.

SanitationStation OP ,

Sorry about that. Health safety and environment.

LibertyLizard ,

Thanks. Is this some new corporate trend? My workplace is pretty old-fashioned so I’m a little insulated from all these weird ideas they come up with.

To the extent that talking about something can help, it can be helpful. It brings it to the top of mind so maybe individuals err on the side of safety when they otherwise wouldn’t. Or it reminds workers of policies already in place.

To the extent it conflicts with the bottom line, it’s a waste of time. Unless the company is willing to legit sacrifice profits for the benefits of HSE, it’s just a nothing bullshit paper you have to sign.
