Meet Salem, the safety skunk. A striped skunk, the kind that lives all over Connecticut, in a hard hat, safety glasses, ear plugs and a hi-vis vest, with a clipboard and a very big tail. Real skunks usually warn before they spray: they stamp their feet and raise their tails long before anything gets smelly. That is Salem’s whole philosophy, and it is the heart of this kit. Raise a stink. Speak up early, report the small stuff, and the big stuff gets rarer.
The Safety Log is the tool I wish every owner had the first time someone got hurt on their floor. You describe what happened in plain words. It walks you through OSHA’s five questions, one at a time, with the rule behind each one, and tells you whether the case belongs on the 300 log, in which column, and by when. If someone was hospitalized or lost a finger, it stops everything and shows you the 8-hour or 24-hour reporting screen first. In February it fills in the 300A summary, tells you who has to sign it, when to post it, and whether your shop files it online.
Employees have a legal right to report an injury without being punished for it, and a workplace where people feel safe saying “that almost got me” is a workplace where the log stays short. So the kit comes with a break room poster, a reporting procedure you can sign, and a Claude Skill that pressure-tests every call you make.
