The Accident Cascade - Workplace Injury Prevention - Safety Training Video
165The Accident Cascade - Workplace Injury Prevention - Safety Training Video
Accidents are the result of a cascade of events. In this safety training video, we show four actual accidents that could have been prevented by changing one event.
Changing just one event can avoid the pain and permanent damage endured by victims, co-workers, companies, and worst of all - the victim's families.

What one event could have been changed to avoid these accidents? Taking time to do the job the right way?
Paying closer attention and concentrating on the task at hand?
Avoiding distractions?
Avoiding inappropriate actions?
Watching where you are going?
Closer inspections of machinery, ladders and work areas?
On and on and on...the number of events that can change...and avoid accidents, are endless.
Take the time to remember that one changed event can prevent an accident -- and have a safe day!
