In todays episode, Colin discusses Shit Jobs. Colin asks if you can really say that you are doing everything you can, to improve Health and Safety in the work place?

 

If you can say yes to this, he congratulates you! But the reason he asks is, commonly people will do a great job most of the time.. but occasionally let it slide.

 

How often do you think about your colleagues, and what they have to do on a daily/weekly basis? How about how they do the jobs?

 

Do you have any Shit Jobs on-site that you are relieved you personally don’t have to complete? 

Listen in to Colin and have a think about your Shit Jobs but more importantly, what makes them a Shit Job? And is this unsafe and/or unhealthy?

 

“It was shit and, in hindsight, it was wrong”
-Colin Nottage

 

Colin implores you to have a sitdown with colleagues and employees and discuss who has the worst job? What are the Shit jobs? 

What can you do, as a business, to change this? How can you make this nicer? Better? and safer? 

“A shit job today could be an ‘oh shit’ moment tomorrow”
-Colin Nottage
