What if I told you that the essential factor in the construction industry isn't the finished building, but the safety of the people who build it? Tune in as I, Scott Friend, passionately advocate for a reimagined perspective on safety – where it's not an obligation, but a personal commitment to make sure that everyone goes home just as they came in. This episode, recorded during Safety Week 2023, is an urgent call to prioritize safety measures every single day, not just for a week. Beyond my personal passion, I also shed light on the critical role of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) in upholding safety standards and the grave consequences of ignoring them. I take the liberty to dispel some common misconceptions about safety in the industry and argue why veterans could make a significant career in construction safety. So, if you're a safety person or know someone who is, join us to resonate with this cause and share your story. Remember, safety is not just about rules, it's about life. Let's make sure everyone gets to enjoy it to the fullest.
