What do we do with those companies who procrastinate the safety training laws put forth by our governments? Or refresher training? Both laws yet I can name you lots who either do not have their staff trained, refresher trained, or delay the training altogether. They are breaking the labour laws, and with no one enforcing them, then whats the hurry to get it done?

Drive without the latest sticker on your license plate, the cops will nail you down from a mile away! Don't renew your drivers license, they'll come a hollering at you with ticket book at hand.

Humans, western society, will take advantage of the non actions of government not enforcing the laws. And if they can get away with it, they will. Most people are literally scared not to renew their licenses, therefore, they'll do it, and the bureaus are jammed pack every woken moment. People are literally scared to drive with invalid plates and drivers licenses, and that is why they renew.

I have yet to come across a business that is literally scared when it comes to planning out training, or refresher training.

And every excuse why not to do it is presented. This one can't make it, or inventory these weeks, or busy time for us, or so and so is on holidays. You name it, they will find the excuse. When it comes to drivers licenses and plates, I'd love to hear them say things like..I've got a wedding to go to, I will be on holidays, I am too busy, My dog is sick.

No sir, they find the time to get er dun. Unlike training, because there is no strict enforcement.

If that was the case, my phone would be ringing a hundred times a day!
