    In France too, we have Pointing and Calling at work.
    The main differences though are:
    1. people in France use the middle finger
    2. the names that are used for Calling are of a different kind and not often kind

    I always point at school because I am an office TA that always deliver passes to students who need to leave at the middle of the class and I point to make sure I pay attention and not entering the wrong classroom. We had a history of the TAs entering wrong classrooms and were force to sign up another class. The staffs in the office said I've became the fastest Office TA for 10 years.

      Alan Cotton It is to keep the mind awake and aware. Repetitive things without body movement can make the mind bored. The physical routine is to make sure that they check everything and it makes good habit, like putting on your seat belt when you get into the car. It is a physical action that you do out of habit. It is a safety act.

    If you just point and say, point and say, point and say, point and say several hundred times per day, even that will eventually become mindless puppetry. Even if they do it to keep their job, they will go through the motions automatically and with reducing attention due to the obvious familiarity.

      Matthias Blume. Fair challenge, I can’t find a citation that supports my point. My statement is my opinion based on the sense that humans will shortcut everything they can. That to see something, say something and point at something needs time to register and fulfill, and if he was doing that much, the train is still travelling and new hazards appearing while he is registering the last hazard. this chap is apparently not pausing to ensure he has registered his vision.
      The articles I found state that accidents were reduced. Possibly that is a function of simply better visual driving, terror of losing one’s job if found not point and calling, thus going through the functions to ensure long employment.

    • @MatthiasBlume
      @MatthiasBlume 5 років тому

      @@josephinebennington7247 I am not a psychologist, so take my opinion with the appropriate grain of salt. However, my understanding is that having to verbalize something and to turn it into muscular action forces us to engage parts of the brain that process the information, and that this processing cannot be easily short-circuited. Notice that they don't just call "yep, I saw it", which could be automated, but that they actually call out the information that they are receiving. So intuitively this makes sense to me, and the literature seems to support it. I doubt that it is just fear - if you ever observe Japanese train personnel you will not see much fear but rather a lot of pride.

      Train conductors, drivers, and station workers play an important role in the safety and efficient operation of railways. And it is a confirmation that supports the physical gesture and voices that they do during their duties.
      Those who came from outside of this country may be foolish, but confirmation by movement or voice is Japan's innovative industrial safety method called Pointing and calling (pointing designation), and an error in the workplace It is possible to reduce up to 85%.
      According to the Occupational Safety and Health Research Institute, in Japan, pointing confirmation is related to physical movements and vocalizations of workers, thereby raising the level of awareness of workers and preventing malfunctions.
      Instead of relying solely on the workers' eyes and customs, they are increasing their certainty by physically and audibly confirming that each step of a given job has been totally and accurately done.

      @Niaisbae 6 років тому +5

      Humans get used to doing things that they are doing every day. Like before passing the street watching right and left for example. After some time you are doing this not on a level of awareness anymore but more on a subconscious level and you only watch with your peripheric vision. By pointing at it you actually using your attentionspan to that specific location. Its true, that you can devolop a subconscious state of that too, and i think that some are doing it, but thats not the point of your work. As long as you stay focused at your job, which japanese people are really good at, this pointing helps you out to really look at whats important.

      Might want to look a bit deeping into human phycology, physical actions do really help with memory and keeping focused, but if your in a unfit state to work you not fit, but you will find pointing way harder and it should be obvious to everyone in the area you are not fit to do your job.
