DO WHAT I SAY OR GET WRITTEN UP AND FIRED! Part 3
Have you ever been told by your supervisor to perform a job but you knew it was not safe to perform it and were threaten to be written up for insubordination would you perform the task anyway? If your supervisor told you to go into a confined space but you know it must be Air Tested but they want you to go in there anyway would you risk being fired for refusing? What if your supervisor told you to perform electrical duties but the wooded ladder is submerged in water would you take a chance and perform the task anyway?
Did you know that you can write up incident reports of supervisors requesting you to perform unsafe duties? They document you refusing to perform a task but it would never be in their report that it was an unsafe work condition. (OOPS they left that out)! When you document you need to have the Date, Time, what the unsafe condition is and if there were any witnesses present on the day in question. You should CC your supervisors supervisor and follow the chain of command. You will hear from Gwen and Bill continue to tell their stories in the last of this series I DON'T WANT TO DIE SAFETY IS IMPORTANT! Part 3

I DON'T WANT TO DIE DOES YOUR SUPERVISOR CARE ABOUT YOUR SAFETY OR JUST GETTING THE JOB DONE PART 2
Management may have one view of workers and the workers may have another view of Supervisors and Managers. Whose to blame when someone gets hurt on the job? Bill was a worker in Part 1 of this topic; now he got promoted to Supervisor for part 2 of this topic. Bill will speak about the importance of safety in the transit system and if you have a concern about your safety then express it in writing and fill out a "Safety Resolution Form." We will put this form up on our website at: www.workplaceradio4usall.com
A great deal of passengers waiting for their trains may see transit workers standing around talking to each other and not working. What they don't know is that it is not safe to work on the train tracks while a train is about to come into the station. THEY DON'T WANT TO DIE AND BE KILLED BY AN ONCOMING TRAIN. When the train leaves the station it is now safe to perform their track duties but you would never know that because you have boarded your train. Please don't judge them. Some workers died because they didn't wait to perform their track duties and was killed by an oncoming train. Who was to blame by taking shortcuts which can cost them their life.

I DON'T WANT TO DIE SAFETY IS IMPORTANT Part 1
Taking shortcuts to meet quotas or supervisors asking you to do them a favor and take a shortcut to meet deadlines can have deadly consequences. Remember it was a favor and it was not in writing when you took the shortcut. Did your supervisor provide you with the Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) to perform the task? If not, did you know that if you are injured or die that the company does not have to pay you or your family because you didn't follow protocol and should have worn your PPE? If it's not in writing it never happened if you are injured or die.
You will hear about two situations of Gwen an Electrician and Bill that works for transit as they talk about Workplace Safety and how shortcuts can CAN COST YOU YOUR LIFE. Gwen is alive today because she didn't follow the unsafe conditions her supervisor told her to perform. Bill want you to know the importance of obeying the rules and protocol to be safe in the workplace.

Millennials Speak Out
We are engaging in conversation with two Millennials today Co-Host Shay and her guest Mymy and their views on various topics. The Lyrics of the Intro song "Millennials Speak Out" was written by "Lady Tay", the Co-Host. Millennials are speaking out that they will not allow what happened to many parents to happen to them. Many parents spent over 20 years on the same job and losing pensions due to Employers filing bankruptcy and job relocations. This leaves parents with nothing to show for their faithful service. There are just too many opportunities, the internet, and technology to let that happen to them. Don't let their age fool you.
Don't lie to them like their parents were lied to. Their parents were promised a promotion but it never happened. In the meantime the Employer received many years of management work for free because they never received the wages to go along with the position and they were afraid to speak up for fear of losing their position or job. THAT IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN TO THEM! Don't lie to them; TELL THEM THE TRUTH! They will not tolerate being disrespected in the workplace and take any workplace abuse. They will look for another job where they feel respected and receive the higher wages like they want and deserve. Millennials are the future of the Workforce today and the Entrepreneurs of tomorrow. Enjoy the Podcast!
