Shownotes

"Anger and Safety" by Jim Thompson, emphasizes the significant risk

posed by anger in various settings, particularly the workplace. It highlights

how being angry impairs judgment and causes distraction, which are major

factors in safety incidents. The author argues that anger can stem from various

sources and entering the workplace while angry creates a dangerous environment

for oneself, coworkers, and company assets, potentially leading to job loss or

injury. The article suggests practical strategies to manage anger, such as

taking breaks, seeking support from a friend, and avoiding triggers, including

problematic personal interactions, office romances, and political discussions.

Finally, the text recommends seeking professional assistance, potentially

through an employer's resources, to learn how to recognize anger and associate

it with unsafe actions.
