"This individual has been working at Garret's Mom's house for the past couple weeks. They were working on a trench and Garret's Mom had to cross the trench to get to her car. There were lots of tools throughout her path. This individual cleared all of the tools, went and grabbed her hand, and helped her over the trench so she safely made it to her car. So for caring for others, David Bernal!" Manager Erik F. We have monthly safety meetings here at GRO.

"This gentleman is actually one of our Bend workers, he's down there right now. He works for the maintenance division. He works his tail off, the crew has been understaffed and we're working to get guys down there to help out. He has a high attention to detail, he is bold by telling me that he needs equipment, he backs up his coworker everyday, communicates, and does everything he can to make sure our customers are taken care of. And I had the pleasure to work with him for a whole entire week and so did Ignacio. So, Jesus Senior, employee of the month for Going Above & Beyond! Congratulations buddy!" -Manager Nick M.

Insight: The life of Anna Wintour's assistants at Vogue was filled with unique and detailed responsibilities, including caring for her goldendoodles. 🐾 Insights: - Three assistants at Vogue had distinct roles: scheduling/travel, invitations/tickets, and goldendoodle care. - Duties included placing Chewy orders, scheduling vet appointments, and coordinating with a dog-walker. - The author desired more time to spend with the dogs, beyond brief interactions. (Their dedication to even the smallest tasks is admirable.) Reflecting on the article, it's fascinating to see the intricacies behind the scenes of a high-profile position, where even pet care is meticulously managed. It sheds light on the unseen aspects of prestigious roles, showcasing the value of attention to detail and dedication in all tasks, no matter how small. How do such meticulous responsibilities reflect on overall job satisfaction? 🐶 #BehindTheScenes #AttentionToDetail https://lnkd.in/gdJ9vfvB

🎅 **What If St. Nicholas Was a Safety Specialist at Your Amusement Park?**🎢 Alright, let’s imagine for a second that St. Nicholas, the original Saint Nick (before he got all jolly with reindeer and gift-giving), decided to trade in his bishop's hat for a hard hat and take on the role of Safety Specialist at your amusement park. Here’s how he'd likely respond: ✅ **Risk Assessment?** "I’ve spent years navigating icy seas and rugged mountains, making sure every traveller was safe. If I can save sailors from storms, I can definitely handle some wild roller coasters."   ✅ **Accident Reports**: "The only incidents that happen under my watch involve the big mouths of heretics and the back of my hand."   ✅ **Employee Training**: “Team, remember the story of the Three Gold Balls? Just like I threw those down to save the day, I’ll be throwing down safety protocols that’ll ensure no one ends up in a situation where they’re ‘stuck’ upside down on a roller coaster.”   ✅ **Crowd Control**: “Look, I’ve dealt with unruly crowds in the 4th century, so a group of overenthusiastic teens waiting for a ride is *nothing* I can’t handle.”   ✅ **Emergency Plans**: "If I can save a city from famine, I can certainly help with evacuation procedures."   🔔 **Bottom line**: St. Nicholas isn’t just a *patron saint*—he’s a safety *pro* who knows how to handle the *real* risks in life: wild rides, big crowds, and maybe a few people who didn’t follow the height restrictions. 👏 #AmusementParkSafety #StNicholasForHSE #SafetyFirst #SaintlyStandards #NotJustForChristmas

Trig knows all the tricks and won’t tolerate fools likely. ‘You can’t park there Dave’ Classic episode, love the job title and even back in those days it were a thing. Is your job title worth it? Does it represent what you are actually employed to do. Is it purley an ESG/HR/Business exercise. In the safety profession is renowned for unnecessary and extra words which mean’s absolutely zilch. Trigs job title is Environmental Hygienist (Road Sweeper) yet the job title supposedly adds value and values the individual. No matter the language used, trig is still a road sweeper. In todays world job titles are more creative than ever.
