The Disasters

Book by M.K. England

There are many factors that contribute to an organization's safety culture, such as the beliefs, perceptions, and values shared by its employees. The National Academies of Science and the Association of Land Grant and Public Universities both published summaries on the topic in 2014 and 2016 respectively, describing safety culture as an integral part of organizational culture.

According to research, accidents at work are caused by a breakdown in the safety policies and procedures put in place by an organization, and this breakdown is the result of a lack of focus on safety issues.

Senior management commitment to safety, realistic practices for handling hazards, ongoing organizational learning, and care and concern for hazards shared across the workforce can all help promote a good safety culture. The foundation for a systemic safety culture is built on individual training, rather than on organizational learning.

Tash Hearts Tolstoy

Book by Kathryn Ormsbee

Society's attitudes toward asexuality are reflected in media portrayals, which are themselves a reflection of societal attitudes. Asexual characters have appeared in a variety of media over the years, including films, television shows, comic books, video games, and other forms of popular culture.

Limited and rarely acknowledged or confirmed by creators or authors, asexual representation in the media is limited. There has been mixed representation for asexual people in fiction, with strong prejudice against asexuals and asexual erasure, due to a lack of asexual characters in media. In part, this is due to the fact that many characters are "suspected to be asexual" but are not explicitly stated to be so, while other asexual characters serve as supporting characters and are not protagonists. Despite the fact that asexual and aromantic characters have appeared in more television shows and films, their asexuality is often depicted as a problem that can be remedied. He went on to say that the lack of representation in the media of asexuals leads to "grossly inaccurate and damaging portrayals of this orientation."
