Scenario: Health and Safety at Work.

Manny recently started
working for a construction
company. His supervisor told
him that because he was so
smart and fit for the job, he did
not need training in the use of
the equipment. He would learn
by doing instead. One day he
was trying to use a table saw
that he had never used before.
He cut himself badly on one of
his hands, and it began to
bleed profusely, but he did not
know where the first aid kit
was located
What is the issue?​

The issue here was that the EMPLOYER (SUPERVISOR) don't take full responsibilities to the EMPLOYEE (MANNY)

the SUPERVISOR must be obligated to ensure the health and safety of MANNY.
