Quiz: What is your attitude towards safety culture?
Safety culture is not just a set of rules and regulations; it is a conscious attitude of everyone towards their own safety and the safety of others. These are the norms we follow every day, in every action, determining our level of preparedness for various situations.
It is important to understand that safety culture begins with ourselves. Assessing safety culture is always interesting. It is not just a test of knowledge of instructions, but rather a meaningful analysis of how well we follow safety rules in everyday life.
Here are a few questions for self-assessment:
- Do you have a fire extinguisher at home?
- Do you read the manuals for household appliances?
- Is your home first aid kit free of expired medications?
- Do you know your blood type?
- Do you use personal protective equipment when working with household chemicals?
- Do you cross the road only on a green light, even if there are no cars?
- Do you dispose of batteries only in special containers?
- Do you know how to perform CPR (how many breaths and compressions)?
- Do you use a seatbelt in a car when you are in the back seat?
- Do you check the expiration date of products before buying?
- Do you always walk on pedestrian paths and not cut corners?
- Do you always remember that you locked the door and never get that "forgotten iron" feeling?
- Do you wash your hands before every meal?
- Do you remember the emergency service numbers?
- Do you hold onto the handrail when going up the stairs?
