2. Dangerous Work SituationA family friend has asked you if you
could possibly complete a couple of odd jobs for her. You
enthusiastically accept for you could use the extra cash!
3. Dangerous Work Situation The Jobs she asks you to do are:
Mow the lawnWater the plantsChop the firewook, and...Climb up on
the roof to take down the weather-vane
4. Dangerous Work Situation You feel a little uneasy about
climbing on the roof. The ladder she supplies isn't exactly
'sturdy'...Remember you have the legal right to say no to any
unsafe work situation.
5. Dangerous Work Situation Most employers want to keep their
employees safe so your employer shouldn't be angry with you for
refusing to do unsafe work. It may be a very tough choice to tell
your boss no but remember, your life is more important than your
job so save yourself! Every single boss will react differently just
keep your cool and remember to stand your ground.
6. Dangerous Work Situation Here's an example of what you could
say: Boss: So can you do that? Employee: No, I don't feel
comfortable completing that task alone. If you purchased a new
ladder, and some helmets, you could also hire another person to
help me. Then I would be very willing to try the task!
