Answer to Question 1

From a legal point of view, an employee's obligations regarding safety rules can be summarized as follows:
 Employers must have rules that ensure a safe and healthy workplace.
 Employers must ensure that all employees know about the rules.
 Employers must ensure that safety rules are enforced objectively and consistently.

Answer to Question 2

Companies gain the following three advantages from making signing on the dotted line part of their program to promote safety:
1 . By their signatures, employees make a personal commitment.
2 . By their signatures, employees promise to interact positively with fellow workers when they see them ignoring safety precautions.
3 . By their signatures, employees give fellow workers permission to correct them when they ignore safety precautions.

This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
