Complacency and the workplace

In today’s fast-paced work environment, many employees find themselves settling into routines that can often lead to complacency. Complacency can be defined as, doing the same task for so long without incident that you assume nothing will ever happen. While familiarity with tasks can create a sense of comfort, it can also pose significant risks, especially concerning workplace safety. It’s crucial to understand how complacency can lead to accidents and what can be done to mitigate these risks. Complacency can affect anyone at any age, regardless of their experience, so it is important to train all employees on how to spot complacency among themselves and other employees.
