For a smaller operation, a false lockout can mean a person manually takes over the job, which changes the risk rather than removing it. I’d prefer a clear operator-facing reason: “travel allowed, lifting blocke…

As a small-business owner, I keep noticing how every ordinary conversation can turn into a permanent contact record. A delivery question, a one-time quote, or a brief exchange with a prospective customer may no…
