If anything has come to define the human experience throughout history, it is a willingness to take risks, to face the unknown with a confidence that boarders on arrogance and come out the victor. Such drive has not only sustained the species for millennia but given it a constant reason to innovate, to push forward and try something new, even when danger may be waiting on the other side. However, when advancement jumps ahead of human limitation, an understanding of risk can suffer.
In most modern workplaces, the definition of risk has become diluted, continually existing in practice, as an outline that remains unclear. What is risk? For many during working hours, their jobs no longer strive to actively undermine personal safety and self-perseveration in the name of making it through the day. Despite the uncertainty having been lessened to a degree, however, whatever the occupation, there are no all-encompassing promises that danger will be permanently avoided.
