Well, I'm not very fond of government spending our money on just anything, but with a daughter and son-in-law in the Navy, I am glad to see that the Navy has an Occupational Safety and Health Department. Keeping our people safe from themselves is sometimes as important as keeping them safe from the enemy.
As I was scoping the Navy OSH website I came across something helpful; a risk matrix, and a 5-step process for identfying risk. And its all on a wallet card!! The risk matrix is helpful when you have those employees who just don't agree that something is dangerous. You just pull it out and ask what the probability of something happening is, and then if it does happen what would be the severity. Then presto, you have how dangerous it really is. After thisis identified, use the other card to assess what you must do to fix it. Congrats to the Navy for coming up with a great idea!!
