Acerca de esta escucha

 I have been creating Safety Moment Videos on YouTube for people to use in their corporate meetings I am slowly building up a library.

I wondered to myself, if there would be any demand to have Safety Moment's available via a podcast episode, so here we are! In each episode, I will add the YouTube link in case you would rather have a visual. However, for those that enjoy sharing content by podcast instead, here is your option!

Safety Moments have been commonplace in both in person and remote meetings, and they promote a positive safety culture and quick tips and reminders on safety in your work and personal life.

I hope that you will find content here that you enjoy, that is useful for you, and for your meetings.Copyright QuickLearn Quests

    Here is the transcript:
    Fall is here, and that means kids are heading back to school. Whether you're a parent or a driver, it's essential to be extra cautious during this busy season. In this quick guide, we'll cover essential tips to help keep everyone safe. First, let's talk about school buses. When you see the stop sign extended, remember: you must stop. Children may be crossing the street, and not doing so, could result in serious injury, or worse. Next, pay extra attention to crosswalk, especially in school zones. Reduce your speed, stay alert, and always yield to children crossing. Kids can be unpredictable, so give them space and time. If you're a parent, make sure your children use sidewalks when walking to school, and encourage them to cross at marked crosswalks whenever possible. And if they're biking, remind them always to wear a helmet and ride in designated areas. Distracted driving is another big concern. As school starts, put your phone away, keep your eyes on the road, and be ready to stop at any moment. In school zones, obey the speed limits, especially during pick-up and drop-off times. Reducing your speed can be the difference between a safe day and a dangerous one. With these small actions, we can help ensure every child gets to and from school safely. So whether you're behind the wheel or sending your child off for the day, let's all do our part this school season. Safety first this school year. Drive carefully, walk safely, and make it a great back-to-school season.

  • Safety Moment For Your Meetings - Daylight Savings Time this Autumn

    Safety Moment For Your Meetings - Daylight Savings Time this Autumn
    Sep 6 2024
    This is a corporate safety moment for your meetings on Tick Safety when enjoying the outdoors this spring and summer. Feel free to embed this Safety Moment in a presentation or play directly from YouTube if you wish to use it.

    Here is the transcript:

    As we adjust our clocks for Daylight Savings Time, it's easy to focus on the hour of sleep we gain or lose. But it's equally important to recognize Atime change's impact on our daily routines, especially regarding safety. The shift in daylight hours affects our driving conditions, outdoor activities, and even home security.

    Today, let's talk about adjusting your habits for the darker mornings and evenings and ensuring your outdoor spaces remain safe and well-lit.

    Driving Adjustments for Darker Mornings and Evenings

    One of the most significant safety challenges during Daylight Savings Time is the sudden change in driving conditions. To adjust for these changes, ensure your headlights are clean, as dirt and grime can dim their brightness.

    Increase your following distance when driving in the dark to give yourself more time to react to unexpected hazards. It's also essential to remain aware of pedestrians and cyclists, especially during the early morning and evening commutes, as they may be harder to spot in low-light conditions.

    Checking and Adjusting Outdoor Lighting for Safety

    The earlier sunsets are an excellent time to assess the outdoor lighting around your home. Start by checking that all exterior lights are functioning correctly, especially those near walkways, driveways, and entrances. If necessary, replace dim or burnt-out bulbs with energy-efficient LED lights, providing better illumination and lasting longer.

    Additional Safety Measures

    In conclusion, while the shift for Daylight Savings Time may seem minor, the changes in daylight hours significantly impact our daily routines. These adjustments allow us to adapt smoothly to the time change while prioritizing safety.

  • Slippery Mud Patches - A Spring Safety Moment

    Slippery Mud Patches - A Spring Safety Moment
    Mar 10 2024
    I live on a slope. The house is at the top of the slope, and the chicken coop is near the bottom of the slope. I got the idea to generate a safety moment on slippery mud patches in the yard, because the snow is melting, and I am cruising down the hill with chicken treats, my Sorels, trying not to fall on my backside.

    I figured that we all experience versions of this when hiking, walking our dogs, or navigating a gravol driveway.

    I hope you enjoy this safety moment and you have my permission to embed this into a powerpoint presentation for your meeting, or to play this safety moment (or any others in my series) for your meetings.

    Here is the script:

    As we welcome the spring season, a common hazard emerges. In our backyards, especially in areas with inclines, slippery mud patches fall into our walking path. These areas can pose a significant risk of slips and falls, leading to potential injuries. Today, we'll discuss how to navigate these slippery zones safely. We will also suggest effective ways to repair and tend to them, ensuring you and your family's safety. First and foremost, when moving through areas known to be slippery, it's crucial to wear appropriate footwear. While heavy rubber boots provide some traction, consider investing in boots with deep, non-slip treads specifically designed for muddy and slippery conditions. When walking, take short, slow steps to keep your balance. Avoid sudden movements that could lead to slips and falls. Be mindful of your surroundings, and use handrails, fences, or sturdy branches for additional support when available. If you're carrying items, distribute the weight evenly to maintain your balance, and consider using a backpack to keep your hands free for better stability. To address the slippery mud patches in your backyard, start by assessing the drainage in the area. Poor drainage often contributes to the problem, so consider installing additional drainage solutions such as French drains or gravel pathways to redirect water away from problem areas. In high foot traffic, laying down stepping stones or creating a mulch path can provide a more stable surface. For inclines, consider terracing the slope or adding retaining walls to reduce erosion and runoff, which contribute to the formation of mud patches. In conclusion, while slippery mud patches can be a nuisance during the early spring months, we can mitigate their risks with proper precautions and yard improvements. Remember, safety is a shared responsibility. Let's work together to keep our environments safe this spring.
