What is the meaning of safety first and safety always? Safety 1st is a slogan that means it's always best to avoid unnecessary risks. It sounds like an easy task, but sometimes we so hurry in making deadlines and meeting the goals that we forget about the safety of ourselves and others. We encourage you to remember this slogan because it can ultimately save lives! #safety #risk #danger #accident #high #workingatheight #hsebrothers #safety1st #slogan | HSE Brothers
