Innocent Bystander

In safety-critical industries such as the airlines, trucking, mining, and the hydrocarbon/petrochemical industry, significant resources are expended to deliver safely.  And as long as those products and services continue to be in high demand, the people in those industries will continue to deliver them safely. 

Workers’ safety is, of course, extremely important.  Just as important is the protection of the ‘innocent bystander’: that person who doesn’t work for the company or the industry, but who is affected should something go wrong with the plane, the truck, or the pipeline. 

Kudos to those whose daily efforts keep the innocent bystanders safe.
