All his subsequent academic career was at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem where he served as a teacher, researcher, and academic administrator at times. He was lecturer (1950), senior lecturer (1953), assistant professor (1957) and full professor (1970). He was a committed member of the University and served in many administrative duties such as vice dean of the Faculty of Mathematics and Science, member of the teaching committee, chairman of the graduate student committee, chairman of the Martin Buber Institute for Adult Education and was the first chairman of the Institute of Chemistry (1971-1975) formed by integrating the individual departments. He never sought election but, being an exemplary public servant, he always accepted the call of duty which he then performed in his quiet, efficient and impartial way and was able to advance projects in the face of adverse conditions and without asking anything for himself. [Pg.746]

In a strong safety culture, everyone feels responsible for safety and pursues it on a daily basis employees go beyond the call of duty to identify unsafe conditions and behaviors, and intervene to correct them. For example, in a strong safety culture any employee would feel comfortable walking up to any top manager and reminding him or her to wear personal protective equipment. This type of behavior would not be viewed as forward or overzealous, but would be valued by the organization and rewarded. Likewise, co-workers routinely look out for one another and point out unsafe behaviors to each other [7]. [Pg.89]
