Accident

Have you been watching Big Brother? Mario is up for eviction this week, and while I do hate Bex who is also up, I'm getting annoyed at Mario. Everything he says is all about 'health and safety'. He nominated someone this week on health and safety grounds. Even his girlfriend Lisa, who is also in the house, was making fun of his health and safety obsession. She must get it all the time in their normal life. Before he goes down on one knee he'll have to do a risk assessment. If that engagement ring isn't COSH approved, it will never happen.

It's a shame, because health and safety in the workplace is a serious thing. It's just when people have that attitude that Mario has it makes everyone pay less attention to it.

But if someone has been negligent in some way and you get involved in an accident at work at least there's more of a path of recourse these days. There are firms that can help you with the accident compensation. For example, have a look at www.claimsforyou.com.

But the key is really to make sure you work place isn't a health risk because it's better to be healthy than t have some compensation. So if you have a Mario in your workplace who bores people into not caring about the health and safety, you have to ignore him... for health and safety reasons. He'll understand.
