i know all about safety. i work in construction.

And i couldnt agree more, safety does cut into profitability on one end of the scales. but on the other hand, safety also means higher efficiency and happier workers which again leads to better efficiency and high output which in effect could safe a lot of money (we're talking interest costs on land aquisition, interest on construction, time bonuses for early completion etc).

so you cant discount safety as just a cost. safety adds value to the bottom dollar too.
