It’s been said that shortcuts cut lives short. But all too often, greedy companies couldn’t care less. They ignore safety standards, cut maintenance costs, or override warning systems, purely in pursuit of profit. Many accidents and fatalities could have been avoided around the world had certain management done better.

And some were chasing their cheques at the expense of workers’ safety. When the bosses ordered staff to perform a dangerous electrical task, the man says he quickly cooked up a plan that would see karma striking like a lightning bolt.
