Episode 69: Shoulder Season Lodge and Cottage Safety

  • Summary

  • Shoulder seasons at lodges and cottages come with their own set of surprises, but the last thing you want is an unexpected injury. Ever thought a simple task like covering a boat could end with a shoulder injury? That's exactly what happened to Will, even with all his experience. We share our personal encounters with these overlooked dangers, stressing the importance of not underestimating tasks that seem trivial. When you're navigating the close of a cottage season or managing minor shutdowns, safety should never take a backseat. We promise you'll walk away with practical insights on how to safeguard yourself during these transitional periods.

    Venturing into the world of lodge management and oil fields, the stakes only get higher. With a tight window for infrastructure improvements in spring and fall, mishaps can happen before you know it. Drawing on years in the industry, from the lax protocols of the late 90s to modern critical safety procedures like "nippling up" a blowout preventer stack, we share how we've learned to prioritize safety at every turn. Listen as we recount the challenges and evolving practices, hoping to leave you not just informed, but inspired to uphold safety as your top priority.
