I don't get this.
My BIL works for Target in the distribution warehouse. If the retrieve merchandise from anything above the first level shelf, they must be harnessed. 6 feet.
No harness = immediate dismissal.
These guys were 300 feet in the air.

They were not using safety harnesses as required, he said. I know, actually reading the article is cheating...

At Target, you are not allowed to leave the ground without a safety strap/harness. These guys are working on the largest spanned dome structure in the world with nothing. Pointless. |

My point is what self-respecting billionaire stadium owner would employ (or, contract out ) these guys and not have ensured there is some sort of safety manager/supervisor whatever onsite to make sure things like this don't happen? (Whether that guy is employed by you directly, or another contractor, or whatever.... ) |

I'm sure OSHA will be very interested in Jerry's answer too.

(Whether that guy is employed by you directly, or another contractor, or whatever.... ) To "ensure" this he would need to be physically present. Ain't happenin', nor should it need to. I guarantee these guys broke the rules of their employer. I'd also bet there was a supervisor on-site. How this is Jones* fault is beyond me. But I've never understood how being stupid and almost killing yourself somehow entitles you to millions of dollars. *for the record I think Jones is an ass. Never liked him. |
