I wanted to share some observations about the cover of the November 1999 issue of Cabling Installation & Maintenance. You will notice a number of things are missing from the picture:
•work-area protection
•traffic control
•safety glasses
•safety vests
•proper reel storage
•confined-space ventilation
•apparent-gas testing equipment
•ladder
Many of my clients have occasion to read your publication. Usually, it is not a problem to convince clients that safety is an item needing the utmost attention. Pictures such as these might make that job more difficult.
