It is hard to find an accident that could not have been prevented.

Although it is often difficult to foresee every unsafe condition or potential hazard - training, constant vigilance and hazard awareness can prevent the vast majority of incidents and fatalities.

Carelessness, distractions, ignorance and unnecessary risk-taking will lead to accidents and injuries.

This safety training video outlines the two causes of most accidents and the human behaviors that make accidents happen. Understanding these causes and behaviors can help us reduce both the frequency and severity of accidents.
