I always confront my manager when I have safety concerns or questions regarding the equipment at my job. One of the first things I raised my hand about, was how to use the bread slicer. It was never explained to me and I was uncomfortable using it without the proper safety instructions. So I raised my hand and asked my manager to set aside some time one morning before my shift to show me how.

I work as a Tire Installer at a tire shop. We have an inflation cage in the shop, which is intended to increase worker safety by containing a tire if it explodes, however I noticed that none of the employees were using this cage to inflate the tires. As the dept. safety rep, I called a meeting of employees and did a presentation on what the cage was for, and when we should use it.

you could speak out to the employer about anything you think is unsafe or not in the right context. you could also talk about a saftey plan that all the employees would have to follow.

If you see something, then say something. Never feel stupid for asking a question or pointing something out.
If your unsure about anything you could ask a supervisor, co-worker or a tradesman. Nobody at work wants to see anyone get hurt and everyone wants to go home safely. There is no such thing as a stupid question before doing a job or working on something.

Making sure I am physically legible to do the job, and if my job/position requires to put myself in danger, I will refuse, and tell my boss that I demand to have a safer workplace, otherwise I will not work, and even protest to make changes to ensure future workers' safety.

Just because they are your boss they have no right to hurt you or put you in danger in away just because you refuse does not mean your a bad worker you have to be smart and not think just because they are your boss that you dont have a right

React when there is still time. You don’t want to be the person saying “Only if I had raised this issue with my boss” and thats only if your lucky.

if my boss is telling me to use the meat slicer and i don't know how or don't quite feel safe i will tell him that i don't feel confertable handling this and if he insists i use it i will let him know that my safty is more important then my job. and that i will use the slicer only if he shows me the proper and most safe way.
