Safety folks are abused and misused, they're often underpaid and overworked, they are undervalued and not appreciated, they find themselves being blamed and shamed when accidents occur, they are torn between the frontline and management, they have been forced to knowingly promote flawed, ineffective and disproven safety management systems, they have been required to preach from a bible in which they do not believe, and it's time for all of that to change. In this second expanded edition of the original "safety sucks," Sam adds additional thoughts, reflections, and bonus material on the "sucks" of the safety profession.
