Took me way to long to figure out that "Plant Emergency Organization" wasn't like a rapid-response botanist service!

I spent several years of my life creating Risk Assessment software for organisations big and small. This video is still relevant, it covers mitigation of risk and kicking off the discussion about who has responsibilities. Although I shudder at some of the practices shown here. I feel a PowerPoint coming on....oh no...

Done some volunteer emergency response stuff myself in my time, really cool to see this. 👍

These days you have to outsource all the checks by law to a licensed company who sends somebody out every three months to walk around and check everything, give your extinguishers a quick blast and check their levels, followed by squeezing a little imprint on the date tags. Once they've finished they hand you a bill and you curse at them under your breath as they leave, knowing only to well you are paying them an exorbitant amount for something you could have quite easily done yourself. Funny thing is, they never informed me that paint dust behind the paint booth filters could spontaneously combust... something I found out the hard way, but was able to extinguish myself and then replace the filters. Needless to say, I regularly kept it well swept out after that. I often thank my lucky stars it didn't happen in the middle of the night when nobody was there to extinguish it! As a side note, I was born in 1965. :-)
