“They get way more conscious of it after something happens. They see a teammate get hurt or something like that. Then it’s like wow, now it’s top priority again, and we’re saying it always needs to be top priority.” -Edgar Cabello [14:56]

 

“I think it’s just like everything else. The effort you put into it is directly proportional to the results that you see. So It’s super important that you’re putting effort into working safely.” -Erick Click [20:35]
