“The Professionals” Hold All-Day Safety Stand Down news.navy.mil
The battalion’s Assistant Safety Officer, Steelworker 1st Class Darrell Essen, had two days to line up topics and subject matter experts. He opted against the traditional classroom setting for a more hands on, interactive approach.
“I wanted our people to actually see for themselves what some hazards are on the construction site, or in the equipment yard,” said Essen. “Talking about it in the classroom doesn’t have the same punch."
Ironically, Essen wanted Seabees to see what they couldn’t see. “The most dangerous hazards are the ones you can’t see,” he said, “like hidden electrical lines or underground water lines.”------------------------------------------- posted 7:06 AM :: reference link ::
