New Poll - OUCH!

There seems to be a disturbing lack of concern for stage safety in general. The productions I have seen lately, have had obvious hazards & potential accidents waiting to happen.
There is also an attitude of the ‘Dodgy Brothers Incorporated ‘ creeping in again! I question thier expertise or lack of - in providing safe working sets - in many instances.
Rostra that is cobbled together & obviously badly produced.
Inadequate materials being utilised beyond their safe usage classification.
Support structures visibly dangerous.
Electrical equipment in obviously poorly maintained condition.
Lights not secured or safety restraint equipment used.
Metal structures protruding into acting areas without any protective coverings.
I could go on & on!
but this is only from one production I witnessed, where I winced at every movement of the performers & thought "What if?" during the whole production. In this instance - all of the hazards could have been easily & cheaply avoided. With a little ingenuity & forethought. Obviously the artistic look was more important.
What’s happened to ‘Duty of care’?
Or is it just to be disregarded - as being someone elseÂ’s responsibility?
