How Does Your Past Experience Doing Safety Training for a Large Corporation Impact How You Understand and Approach Personal Injury Cases?
Video Description
Well, so my prior experience in working for a company where I was you know over safety training and safety compliance, it really gave me the understanding breath of knowledge of, you know, industry standards, what companies are required to do. You know state law mandates certain things of all companies, you know, here’s what you’ve got to do when you’re hiring an employee. You got to run a simple background check make sure that they’re not a felony and things like that. Those are the minimum safety standards that companies got to live or die by right. They stand on those. And then companies come in and create their own policies and procedures that encapsulate those and then often times elevate those, right. And so just because you’ve got a minimum, you know, requirement under state law, companies can’t fall below it, but they can go above it in their own policies and procedures and requirements of their employees. So it gave me a real breath of you know what the industry standards are and a real knowledge of minimum safety standards for the industries. And then also what companies do, because you know, believe it or not everybody wants to be the best and everybody markets that they’re the best and everybody wants to portray that they’re the best, so they create these standards internal policies and procedures that elevate you know what they do. Hey we’re going to be the safest, right. We’re not going to just do minimum we’re going to do maximum. And with that, that’s spilled over into my practice in personal injury law, right. I’m able to look at any case and say, you know are you complying with at least the minimum standards and if you’ve got standards that are elevated, are you complying with those standards. We hammer a lot of big business on failing to comply with minimums as well as what they create internally. And through our jury experience, our trial experience, focus group experience, we’ve learned that if you create a policy and procedure you have to follow your policy and procedure. There’s no exceptions especially when it comes to safety rules and safety of employees customers patrons whatever it might be.
