Japan Points the Way to Better Safety

[@aestheticcruise8807]

Japan certainly keeps a razor sharp eye on safety, truly impressive how such simple practices and procedures have prevented so many fatalities.

[@kristons6010]

To be honest, it's a weird practice to watch people do but the science backs it up.

[@theone6152]

its only weird because its not standard, similar to how shaking a hand is only normal because everyone does it. if no one did it it would be very strange to just grab someones hand to say hello/goodbye.

[@sayamqazi]

@@theone6152 In some cultures male friends can kiss each other on cheeks without it having any connotations of homosexuality.

As a Japanese, I had thought “pointing and calling” is a manner for those who mainly work in the railway company. However, it also works in everyday life, especially in the busy morning. I point and call, “ Smartphone YOSHI 👉 Wallet YOSHI 👉 Nothing left YOSHI 👉!!”. If you tend to forget something, you may try it.😅

[@jun_suzuki42]

I conduct shisa kanko on my belongings including pockets and bags before leaving my house, and almost all areas that I possibly make mistakes. Found out that I never left my belonging after practicing this as a habit.

[@bartrazin]

I think it is fascinating to see and it works! I always thougt the people pointing and calling were saying¨yes¨it kinda sounds the same as YOSHI(i think). I followed a training in how to switch high tension switches and during the training you also say what you see and sometimes point it out,it makes you aware of possible dangers.

I do this at supermarkets when I am finished at self-check registers.

I am here after reading a chapter in James Clear's Atomic Habits. And suddenly realised my friend recommended this video to me a long time ago. Such an effective way to build habits and reduce errors. Thanks for posting the video!

[@sebounart3068]

It's both amazing and mesmerizing! People tell it looks weird but imo it looks more professional. It keeps brain on the track and gives explicit feedbacks and acknowledgements for other workers.

[@samsungw200]

I use this method for checking things as I have severe OCD. It works sometimes

[@yusdiy]

I am pointing at this video and saying 'watched'.

[@Paula_Limberg]

Thank you for explaining the exact steps and what to say when! Exactly the tutorial I was looking for.

GO Transit in Toronto Canada started doing this practice lately

[@poojamarothia4650]

This habit click on mind. Decision power increase ho rahi h.I try this amazing

[@elijahm.7179]

this is the cutest thing and as a nursing student, super helpful too!

[@nuclearbum9858]

they do this too building cars ...i saw it in a toyota video when they were building a prius

[@aianimation555]

I done this while studying it increase my focus and study time

Indonesian Railways (KAI) has adopted pointing-and-calling since 2015 during the railway reform, and the results are incredible. Trains have become more punctual than before, work safety improved, and the number of incidents has decreased dramatically. I’ve personally started to implement this technique in my daily life. For example, when I’m about to leave my house, I will call “Lamps off OK, stove off OK, doors locked OK,” etc.

[@zhangsc91]

Yugi: [points at his hand] Black Magician, OK. Next I summon my Black Magician!

[@Alex_Smith021]

Japan is like another planet! God bless Japan!)))

[@redpillqueer8303]

I don't know if it's the downward brim of the hat, or the crisp whiteness of the gloves, I weirdly find these guys pointing kind of sexy...

[@NE-cf5tf]

Hi, could I use this video for staff training courses? Do I need permission?

[@tramlink8544]

im actually starting on Trams next year, i think ill adopt this technique

[@kobodas]

how is you doin?

[@harisrex7532]

Long story short, doing these gestures let ur brain keep focused and reminded so u would not slacking and prevent ur mistake again like u did with ur ex.

[@SportyMabamba]

Door locked, OK! Lights off, OK!

I work at a toyota plant and every once in a while management tries to get us to do this and it just annoys and pisses everyone off. Its definitely a Japan thing.

[@shouseihonji5478]

[@sabitkondakc9147]

It ain't stupid if it works.

[@dawoodwaris]

[@Inkling777]

I'm doing my best to make healthcare in the US aware of pointing and calling, but I have to admit that using the technique in a train station somehow seems more natural than in a hospitalized patient's room.

[@holkn]

I pointed at my son and called out loud “mistake!”

[@RealNameNeverUsed]

"Accident 👉🏽. OK 👌🏽"

[@Xevailo]

KZbin comment OK! 👉

[@julieisthatart]

Umm, strange. This is the method I have developed to use with strange dogs and driving situations. I know that the other driver probably does not see me and for sure does not hear me, but it seems to work anyway. And, of course with dogs, well, I just do not get how it works, all I know is when I point at a misbehaving strange dog and call out it reacts as I have ordered.

Completely nonsense and idiotic. You can do anything to improve your focus and believe it does and have the science to back you up, because you believe in your results. Also, not doing this fingering thing and claiming that you will retain the same focus level is also wrong. It's all about concentration, and your body must be in sync with your actions, this is the basis of this fingering practice. So if you want to keep your focus high up, you can do anything you may find convenient to keep your body and mind in sync. You don't necessarily need to do the fingering practice and assume it's the thing. But your efforts towards your goal are.

[@michaelm.1947]

Thank you. We were waiting for the YT comment that we could believe in over the university studies! It's good to know we're looked after by magnificent YT commenters. How could we live without their knowledge and benevolence?

[@ChargedPulsar]

@@michaelm.1947 You can stay ignorant to the rest of the world's knowledge, that's also an option. Insulting hidden under a fake smile and compliment? Is this what you teach in the university?

It's great for something in a large space. It would also piss off management as people stop at every intersection which may not work in a hospital where seconds could count.
