    This sounds like fun, who can think of the most stupid possible risks... However while the company has a legal duty to provide a safe environment for you even as a contractor, I'm pretty sure that doesn't imply you have to do this if you don't want to.

      Completely barmy!

      By setting this daft target they're actively promoting people deliberately creating a risk just to solve it, I'd love to see their faces if someone gets hurt as a result of that behaviour.

      Ok, that's a good one to put on their HSE target. Company policy that actively encourages the creation of risk!

      I admit that a lot of the HSE stuff is pretty trivial, but having worked in military, aerospace and naval environments some of their HSE stuff is life saving so I'm not totally cynical about the issue.
