Picture does not show safety
Dear Sir,
I am writing to you regarding the front cover of the April 2013 issue of Landscape Ontario magazine.
The gentleman on the cover is pictured performing a procedure that is done regularly within the trade on many job sites. The picture portrays the exact opposite of the message Landscape Ontario has been preaching for years.
“WE DO IT SAFELY.”
The picture was most likely staged, showing the exact opposite of proper safety procedures.
This picture presented an ideal opportunity to show the full level that Landscape Ontario and its members put into safety.
Again, this picture was most disappointing in what it DID NOT show.
Thank you,
Bob Allen,
past president Landscape Ontario
