And could get you into unimaginable worlds of trouble if something goes wrong. The next time a supervisor asks you to do something that seems dodgy from a health and safety point of view (if it feels bad it usually is), or is contrary to the risk assessment you signed (you did read it I hope), ask him to write a few words accepting responsibility for any consequences, or alternatively to review the risks and prepare an updated Safe Plan of Action. If, as I suspect, he won't; tell him to stick it and leave him to it while you call his boss and then the HSE.
