Outline The presenter Work / Volunteer background Seminar goals Being a P.R.I.C.K. Human behavior and risk Definition of some terms Group exercise in Risk management Why do we do this Questions
The Presenter Readers Digest version microfiche edition 1960 - Born in North Bay ( yes I’m ancient ??) 1972 - at age 12 my first kink (39 years ago) 1987 – First Dom experience (24 years ago) 1997 my first regular sub (14 years ago) 2009 – Covered as a Master at a Master’s dinner in

multigenerational international Poly Leather Family, The seminar part two starting today at 2:30 PM
Day jobs and volunteer experience Multi Million dollar projects Staffs of 25 + Billions in physical assets Volunteer experience which has had impacts
across the province.
Disclaimer I am not a safety expert. You all know more than what I do. This is a summary of what is normally a 7
hour course, compressed into less than two hours
This is for me is a way of thinking that I put into practice in my family.
Seminar goals
Provide the tools so that we can all be safer kinksters
Get you thinking about your motivations as to why we realy want to reduce our risks.
Turn you all into PRICK sters
Our safety buzz words
SSC Safe Sane Consensual RACK Risk Aware Consensual Kink PRICK Personal Responsibility
Informed Consensual Kink BUT ……..
How do we put this into practice?
How many of us have had a opertunity and taken a Risk Assessment and or a Risk management courses?
So how can we realy say we are truly SSC, RACK, or PRICK sters?
Risk management is art not a science
Before we begin as one of Steven Covey’s 7 habits for highly effective people suggests lets begin with the end in mind. Realy what risks are we realy managing? It may not be clear.
Why do we have Seat belt laws? In play what are we realy managing? When
going through this I want you to think realy big picture.
Human Risk Behaviours Risk study in my volunteer work.
The Peltzman effect arises when people adjust their behaviour to a regulation in ways that counteract the intended effect of the regulation. So, for example, when the government passes a seatbelt law, some drivers may respond by driving less safely. It turns out that the Peltzman effect has widespread application.
So what are the implications for kinksters????
Terms
Near miss an unplanned event that did not result in injury, illness, or damage - but had the potential to do so.
Example brick on ladder above a walk way= hazard. Brick falling in a walkway=near miss. Brick falling and injuring a person=incident.
Terms
Hazard is a situation that poses a level of threat to life, health, property, or environment. Most hazards are dormant or potential, with only a theoretical risk of harm; however, once a hazard becomes "active", it can create an emergency situation. A hazard does not exist when it is not happening. A hazardous situation that has come to pass is called an incident. Hazard and vulnerability interact together to create risk.
Terms Likelihood: a measure of the probability that an event will
happen. This is one input into the determination of risk.
Loss is any undermined result of a system failure, this includes injuries, illness,damage, production, or production loss, environmental effects, legal or regulatory issues,public or public relations effects and financial
Terms
Risk is the likelihood of a harm occurring as a result of exposure to hazard, and the possible severity of the consequences.
Risk = Severity x Likelihood
Terms
Risk is the potential that a chosen action or activity (including the choice of inaction) will lead to a loss (an undesirable outcome). The notion implies that a choice having an influence on the outcome exists (or existed). Potential losses themselves may also be called "risks". Almost any human endeavour carries some risk, but some are much more risky than others.
Terms
Risk assessment is a process for identifying the hazards present in any activity or in the workplace ,assessing the risk posed by those hazards and identifying the necessary precaution that must be implemented for their control.
Terms
Risk Control the process of decision making for managing risk and the implementation,enforcement and re-evaluation of it’s effectiveness from time to time,using the results of risk assessment as one input.
Terms
Risk management the complete process of risk assessment and risk control.
Severity is a measure of how bad a loss is or could be. It is also one input into the determination of risk.
Terms Severity Severity is a measure of how bad a loss is or could be. It is
also one input into the determination of risk.1. Negligible = no unintended visible injury–or pain.2. Slight = no unintended minor cuts, bruising, or long term
effects3. Moderate = no unintended heavy bruising,deep flesh
woods,or medical aid required.4. Severe = lost time accidents, and major injuries.5. Very severe = long term disability or death.
Types of hazards to be considered
Physical Mechanical Chemical Electrical Ergonomic Biological Psychosocial
BDSM play hazard examples Access/egress, ( obstructions) (Aisles, passageways,corridors,exits,stairs) Animals Crowd control Compressed gases (fire play in a room with cylinders used for curling
irons) Confined spaces Children, In laws, spouses. Phone calls Electricity Fire protection ( fire safety/flammable material) Hazardous substances.
BDSM play hazard examples Heights Hostile environments Lifting hazards ( restrained subs can be heavy) Machinery and tools ( fingers in hoists) Manual handling of materials Noise exposure ( screams can be heard) Lighting ( or lack there of) Improper storage of supplies Kicking / fight back
Types of controls Elimination design a scene without the hazard. Substitution substitution of the hazard with a less or non hazardous option. Reduction reduce the level of exposure to the hazard Isolation Isolate the hazard to eliminate the level of exposure. Administrative control the hazard with specific procedures, practices or
guidelines that control the hazard or exposure to the hazard Personal protective equipment and clothing ( panics, restraints that fit
weight lifting belt for kidney area) Transfer the risk?? Contract out, in our case get help from a experienced
kinkster.

Now for the fun part
Confirm all Doms will permit their subs to work separately. If not they will stay with their Dom. Number off the group.
Scenario You have a day off in the middle of the week. You are a 40 y.o. Married Dom(e), with 2 primary school aged
kids, with 4 years experience. Your spouse is another one of your 4 collered subs.
You live in row housing. Although experienced in wax play. You will be doing wax play for
the first time in your “spare locked storage room” in the basement with a new sub who is collered and married to another Dom(e). The sub is an arachnophobe who loves to be blind folded all the time, loves pain and has a reputation for being loud.
Exercise What is (are) your macro risk(s) What are all the micro risks To save some time You are to think one hour before and after
the arrival of the sub. Sort between high medium and low Come up with ways to mitigate the risks starting with the
highest risk items. 20 minutes Report back
Why do this – ESTF/SMIF Evil (Sweet) Sadistic (Masochistic) Twisted ( Innocent ) Fucks
Thank You! Thank you!
