See Phil La Duke post HERE and comments to see what this pyramid is about (just a bit fun).
Do like this Comment from Dr Long (shows ignorance)
"I just don't get this fixation with hazards in safety - 'The secret to eliminating injuries lies in removing hazards (whether behavioral, system, or procedural)' How does someone know something is a hazard? If you have named a hazard, or even know of a hazard, how does this eliminate or modify the risk?"
Dear Mr Long, hazards are found, and since they are found they can be addressed. To manger these hazards is to change the Risk. There is no fixation on hazards, it is part of the job and part of what we all should be looking out for. If you don't understand this basic stuff, stop selling you books on safety.
