Sobre IBD

It was Just Another Day. Yet for Theo Venter, removing his insulated gloves while working on a damaged high voltage transmission pole was a decision that would impact himself and his family in ways he could never have imagined. But why did Theo, an experienced liney, make what the safety industry will have you believe was such a ’violation’ or ’unsafe act’? Get Real delves beneath these 1940’s catchphrases to reveal a deeper hidden explanation why company culture ultimately determines if a worker buys in to your safety program, or not! Using tried and tested psychological concepts, this book examines why accidents still occur even with the multitude of rules and regulations that dominate our industry. Discussing the role of every individual within an organisation in the process, Get Real is a must read for not just managers and leaders, but each and every member of your work crew. If you want to know the ’real’ reason you still have incidents and accidents that cause injuries at work, discover ’why’ from the only man known to survive 22,000 volts through the heart... and live to tell the tale. 3

In attempting to begin this process, he traces the origins of what was by 1914 an important national industry, setting the economic, social and political context of the trade,...
