Health and Safety in the Workplace | What Happens if an Employee Dies?

[@davidearle2514]

Spine chilling video. It just shows how we all have a responsibility to make the workplace safe. Absolutely well done to Daniel and all involved in the making of this very important message. Although nobody was hurt in the making, it brings it home how quickly situations can turn sour and affect a lot of people. Well done Ashville Team.

[@slymothertrucker3597]

100% agree but it is a diversion. All HGV drivers know that safety is paramount. Who told him to do this. - Money talks. DVSA, ROSPA and HSE will come after you.

[@Metal05]

I would be interested to know if an accident occurred or fatality of a sub contractor. Who is responsible? The main contractor or is the self employed subbie and his family on their own? I worked for a company as a subbie engineer, and they ask me to do all kinds of “dangerous” tasks of which I have now left as the last job was just profit above safety, and I walked out.

[@GenaF]

@@Metal05 I'm unsure who is legally responsible as I'm not in that business. However, I would imagine there is someone responsible for the whole site and everyone working within it. I'm glad you have been able to walk away from somewhere so dangerous but I imagine that they've now got someone else doing their dirty work. It may be worth contacting HSE.

This is an Ashville masterpiece, well done Daniel, you’ve shown a side of running a business which most people wouldn’t even think of and put it across in such an engaging way, as “boring” Health & Safety is it’s important in dangerous workplaces, I’m a tree surgeon myself and god forbid I ever put my boss in such position. Made me rethink how I cut some corners here and there. Respect 👊🏻

[@chrisjinks5197]

Unreal you guys put so much effort into sending this message. I'm an employer myself and it was truly humbling watching this. There can be a culture of poor health and safety within the UK, especially in SMEs. Also just hat's off to use your reach and platform to make content like this.

[@cameron_stansfield]

As a Safety, Health and Environmental advisor, this is extremely refreshing to show how traumatic things like this can be, it’s especially important to show that even though people think Health & Safety is overbearing, it is in place to protect people from these incidents occurring and also showing how everyone has a responsibility. Fair play Ashville already enjoyed the channel before this.

[@JSF_7]

Incredible video. Such a refreshing reminder of our responsibilities as directors. It’s sometimes easy to think you’re simply extending responsibilities to those under you and that’s that, especially if you’re not on site at all times like myself but you really have to document EVERYTHING for instances like this.

[@fCollella]

I’m working in a company where the danger is every were, starting with industrial vehicles, suspended loads, operations in height, and vehicles moving with dangerous loads, from heavy to molten metal. The key message is to guarantee that everyone and the end of the day go home safe and healthy. Congrats for bringing the issue awareness!

[@michaelayemoba5585]

I swear you shot this video over 6months ago… ??!! it’s about time & big up to ASHVILLE for using their platform to educate everyone about the importance of H&S !!!

[@Kalisskaa]

Never forget being called in by a senior manager, many years ago now, and told off for reporting too many faults (not construction industry). My reply was "If you think I'm bad now, you've seen nothing yet". I'd previously let more minor things pass but after him telling me off, I reported anything and everything. It was my livelihood at risk and ultimately, as this excellent video shows, I was partially protecting him as well. Well done Ashville team, that brought a tear to my eyes when Daniel screamed out to Terry and ran towards him.

[@stevee8920]

Seeing pictures of Cora just sent shivers down my spine, it’s far to easy to let a mistake go with sharp words, that is until someone dies because those sharp words were ignored. H&S dominates what we do for good reason. I hope this video does go viral and is used as an example to other companies as to why things are put in place and why breaching those rules is gross misconduct. Well done Daniel for putting yourself out there again and again

[@el141210]

I worked for a train maintenance company. It was alarming to see that Health and Safety was being poo-pooed by senior management. The H&S managers were so stressed and frustrated that they themselves were going off sick. It is wonderful to see a company that cares enough about their employees to highlight this issue. I think you are brave to showcase it in this way.

[@jamesbowens60]

Daniel, that was a brilliantly put together video!!! Danger doesn’t take a day off!! Very very well done 👏🏻

[@hunter2k222]

This is such an amazing video. I don’t think some companies understand the importance of following the scope and procedures that they have implemented once the business grows.

That was a great video, I think what we learned from it is that we can never cut corners when we are entrusted with high responsibility. The HGV driver was supplied with a concrete lorry to perform the daily operations of the company, and did not follow proper protocol whilst reversing. This shows the deadly consequences and proves why protocols exist in a workforce, not following them may have devastating consequences. Thank you for the video Daniel, once again Ashville has made an amazing video highlighting the consequences of not following proper protocols. Amazing use of the courtroom dialogue, well done Dr. Okewale

Very good video, employees of a company remember there is a reason why a decent MD/CEO gives you a stern talking too every now and then, you may feel a bit peed off after a grilling but you can not imagine what they have to go through every day and night, where as you can switch off at 5 o clock when you go home and not have any worries until the next morning, the boss is probably answering phone calls and emails well into the night even though he has to be back in work in a few hours time. Just a few wise words (I think) , I am not a MD/CEO i am an employee of a company with a good boss and I see how much stress he has to deal with on a daily basis.

Wow Daniel this video brought tears to my eyes, at the thought of losing Terry. I don’t believe for one minute that you would stay away from the family. Seriously though H&S is for every person to comply with including visitors that come to the site. You could say that terry should not have been in that area on his phone. Prevention is always better than cure. You have made me even more aware of the H&S practices that should be taking place on construction sites an even when we see houses being renovated an heavy equipment is being used. These days there seems to be many people setting up construction companies but H&S is not at the forefront until things go wrong. I hope that everyone at Asheville has seen the video and taken it very serious. An everyone that watches it looks at their own companies H&S policy to make sure there are no holes.

No one really thinks how fast one can actually die at work. One of my father’s coworkers died a couple of months ago. He was operating a small remote controlled crane and wanted to pick up a heavy load (3+ tonnes). He didn’t attach the rope evenly and when he picked it up, the load tilted towards him and smashed him against the wall. The man was 5 years away from retirement, what a shame.

Great Video and I really hope it helps to bring the message to a wider audience. I’m a manager in the waste industry and operate in very similar environments. In 2020 I hade to deal with a fatality at our site and my BIG learning from the whole sad episode was the wider impact it had on the rest of the team working on site. Three weeks after the incident our weighbridge operator SAW the deceased sitting in her passenger seat on her drive home!! Six people had to have counselling for a long period of time to get over it. The memories never go away. They fade but they are always there. I really hope that this video makes everyone stop and think that we are all responsible for safety. Not just the directors and the managers….EVERYONE!
