Document Summary

Looking through various photos, we will see a significant different between the global north and global south working conditions. A lot of things that are allowed there aren"t here. People wrapping plastic wrap around their faces to protect themselves from chemicals. Have scaffolding on top of 2 chairs to keep it even (not safe) Air conditioning and painting the pool made difficult so someone has to hold these people upside down while they complete their work. Wear wood on top of their heads to protect themselves ( helmet ) Car mechanics have to use wooden planks to hold the car up so they can work. Power cable installer using a dump truck to hold up a ladder so they can work. Global north is partially safer than it used to be; however part of this may be because we"ve shifted the dangerous work overseas so they"re put in harms way.
