We are nothing after our death. Let us donate our body organs for the poor.

Be not afraid of anything. You will do marvelous work The moment you fear, you are nobody - Swamy Vivekananda

If you think safety is expensive, try an accident... - O.P.Kharbanda

Preventable accidents, if they are not prevented due to our negligence, it is nothing short of a murder - Dr. Sarvepalli Radha Krishna, 2nd President of India

Zero accidents through zero unsafe behaviors. Do not be complacent that there are no accidents. There may be near miss accidents (NMAs). With luck/chance, somebody escaped knowingly or unknown to the person. But, we can't be safe, if we depend upon the luck.

Safety culture is how the organization behaves when no one is watching.

We make No compromise with respect to Morality, Ethics, or Safety. If a design or work practice is perceived to be unsafe, we do not proceed until the issue is resolved. - Mission statement by S&B Engineers & Consultants Ltd. http://www.sbec.com/safety/

Sleep walk, sexsomnia, etc

A news item in Times of India today is about the innocence of a person suffering from sexsomnia. Experts told the court that the person will be telling the truth about his problem. The wife and ex-girl friend too supported the case with similar events in their life with him. Wikipedia has an article on the subject along with diagnosis methods. It is not clear why the person did not go for treatment when ladies in his life already encountered such behaviour and because of continued disorder, a girl has become victim. Letting of people with disorders can create law and order problem as people can misuse. Persons suffering from such disorders should be sent to hospitals for treatment and till it is cured, they should be under supervision.

Similarly, people suffering from sleep walk can create problems to the society by their actions, not known to them consciously. Whether such problems lead to split personalities and pose problem to others is not clear. Hypothetically, if we assume existence of such workers in the workplace, imagine what are the consequences and impact on coworkers and public outside factory premises.
