Safety problems rarely show up on your P&L until it's too late. I've watched too many home service business owners lose profit, time, and sleep because safety training in the workplace kept getting pushed aside.
Eric Wick has sat on the other side of OSHA audits, insurance inspections, and lawsuits, and what he sees most is panic when owners cannot produce safety training records. Sneaky Leaky loves missing documentation because it quietly drives up workers comp costs and legal exposure. In this episode, Eric breaks down what actually matters, what inspectors look for, and how a simple system can protect both your people and your bottom line.
