Default Re: Types of Biners you use.

"Ask your heirs if they will allow you to climb on non-lockers after they read the Z."

When I see unsafe work practices by new employees I would always ask them if they would do that with their spouse, gf, mother or kids watching. We impose a burden on them and on society when we work outside of standards that are meant to reduce the inherent risk.

While I was walking down 8th ave in NYC last night I passed a sign on the hoarding at a construction site that read, "to report unsafe work conditions on this site anonymously, call 311". This was also posted in spanish. Workplace safety is an ongoing process that calls for participation by all concerned to reduce the loss of life and disability. Financially it would reduce the cost of WC and enforcement.
