A Memo about Safety
Precautions |
|
As a result of today's
accident, Mr. Hector Grant, the Managing Director, feels that the
safety precautions should be re-examined
and, if necessary, tightened up, enforced more strictly. He does not
think it necessary to appoint a full-time
Safety Manager, but he wants the opinion of his Personnel Manager as
to how the safety regulations can be improved. He also wants all the
staff members to be made more aware of possible dangers. Here is Mr.
Grant's memo: |

|
|
FROM:
|
THE MANAGING DIRECTOR |
|
DATE: |
JUNE 16, 2005 |
|
SUBJECT:
|
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS |
|
TO:
|
THE PERSONNEL
MANAGER |
|
As a result of the accident which occurred in the
fitters' shop, we are going to have a drive to improve our safety
precautions throughout the Works. We want, first of all, to eliminate
the sources of accidents: in other words, we want to see where the
possible danger points are and remove them. Secondly, we want to make
all employees more aware of danger to themselves if they do not follow
instructions. |
|
1. |
Would
you please prepare a report for me on what you consider the danger
points to be and how our safety rules can be improved. Any suggestions
from members of staff will be most helpful and will be very carefully
considered. |
|
2. |
Would you inform all employees, in the strongest terms,
of the risks they run if they do not follow the safety regulations |
