NanoTech - Health and Safety who knows who cares?

Scary photo goes with a scarier thought that the vast majority of high tech facilities go without "basic" OSHA and EPA program compliance.
 
High tech fields demand "higher" tech security, environmental and safety programs... yet few EHS professionals find a match of skills within this fast paced climate.
 
I am always amazed by how much basic health, safety, security and environmental information is missing from workers and owners in high tech fields.
 
What they are often missing most, are the additional profits and employee benefits of a well run EHS program.
 
Often investing millions in "security/ safety" programs that miss out on the basics. When just the basics would have eliminated the need for the extreme.
