We are nothing after our death. Let us donate our body organs for the poor.

Be not afraid of anything. You will do marvelous work The moment you fear, you are nobody - Swamy Vivekananda

If you think safety is expensive, try an accident... - O.P.Kharbanda

Preventable accidents, if they are not prevented due to our negligence, it is nothing short of a murder - Dr. Sarvepalli Radha Krishna, 2nd President of India

Zero accidents through zero unsafe behaviors. Do not be complacent that there are no accidents. There may be near miss accidents (NMAs). With luck/chance, somebody escaped knowingly or unknown to the person. But, we can't be safe, if we depend upon the luck.

Safety culture is how the organization behaves when no one is watching.

We make No compromise with respect to Morality, Ethics, or Safety. If a design or work practice is perceived to be unsafe, we do not proceed until the issue is resolved. - Mission statement by S&B Engineers & Consultants Ltd. http://www.sbec.com/safety/

Slab fall from demolition of adjacent flats damages common boundary wall

As per news reports, during the demolition of flats, a slab falls down on adjacent common boundary wall, causing damage. The area on this side was  not barricaded, though, it was barricaded on other two sides by the construction company. The debris and dust during the demolition will be an issue for the neighbours and needs cordoning for sufficient distance as a protective measure. 

As per statements, in the same report, there are no rules governing demolition buildings.
It is fortunate, that nobody is injured in the incident.
