Examining the state of safety

摘要

Like any healthy body,the safety profession needs an annual checkup.The chief component of this checkup is an analysis of numbers.Numbers are the life's blood of the profession.They tell us our successes,our failures,what we have done and what we need to do.How many lives and dollars saved?And how many lost?Numbers are all the more poignant to the safety professional,who knows that each one represents a human life.
