Along the lines of what Libby and others have said-

One often overlooked aspect of Safety is the "Boy Who Cried Wolf" aspect of enforcement. If practices irrelevant to particular situations are crammed down someone's throat, they can be desensitized to the importance of said practice when it is actually needed.

As pointed out above, if there is not a an obvious hazard (such as sticking your head in a robot) we should be respectful of other people's space.

This same advice applies to similar situations in the pits. The classic case of shouting robot incessantly, even when the robot does not have an obstacle in its path. Additionally, things like removing your safety glasses in a safe area, to clean/defog them.

This is not picking and choosing when to enforce safety, its using common sense to avoid desensitizing people to ACTUALLY dangerous situations.


If you are a team member, trying to point out a safety issue to a member of another team, please remember to be polite and make a suggestion- not an order.
