I've been around a lot of people who say that sort of thing and it's why in my neck of the woods we note that "I never get distracted, I'm never tired, I always work perfectly" is the mantra of a woodworker who has eight fingers. (He didn't learn the first time.)

Time is money, but you can't get a finger back. And neither can your employees who work for you, who the EU regulations are, rightly, more concerned with than your bottom line.

You can get a finger back but only if your medical science is sufficiently advanced. Full fingers have been re-attachable since the 1960s, and soon we will be able to grow new fingers like a newt. The key is to continue the progress quickly rather than slow things in the name of onerous safety.
This is deeply antisocial and I hope you're not allowed near decisions that can impact other people.
I hope you don't take part in any modern medicine because almost every modern procedure was built upon a long history of extremely risky experiments that probably should have never been allowed.
