If you see a colleague acting in an unsafe manner, don't go up to him like a police officer telling him off. A better way of broaching the subject to your colleague is with an open question: "I noticed you're doing it like that. Why did you choose this method?"

How to create an open safety culture?
An open safety culture means that everyone, regardless of position or department, can and may address others when they see unsafe behaviour or unsafe situations. Don’t ask yourself whether it’s your responsibility or someone else’s, but take action and talk about safety… just like Buddy.
