What Causes Accidents - Safety Training Video - Preventing Accidents & Injuries

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.

We had a string of minor accidents that occurred in one week. No serious injuries or damage but as a safety professional on a construction site I was worried that this was just leading to bigger and worse things. We had a stand-down and I brought our guys in to discuss the happenings. I had recently seen this video so I pulled it up and showed it, as well as other videos, to the guys. I think it had a positive effect. We haven't had one incident since the safety stand-down (38 days). You guys have a ton of helpful videos. Thanks so much.

How does this video make people more safe or aware of danger. I believe a video example of simple accidents may wake some people up.

We had a student at my school pour water right at the Cafe doors. I didn't see it until I was already on the floor. Had a bruised knee for over a week.

The one people always seem to forget is the medical issue possibility. In the early 1980s I found a man outside a medical building about 55 years old hunched over his steering wheel. I told Dr. Martin who was in the medical office and he saved the man with CPR.
And just this week a middle age man died of a coronary at a boat launch. Some stupid comments included “learn how to operate a boat” or “must have had too many Jack Daniels”. Just stupid

Must needed info about general safety!

Can we use this video to show to our class during our Managing Safely training courses?

While I didn't care for the "Humans are bad and should be shamed", undercurrent in the video; I took umbrage with the YELLOW LIGHT example. In Texas, at least, the law is to prepare for the next traffic signal, not slow down. This is colloquial wisdom at it's finest. Not all "truisms" are true when examined more thoroughly. I wouldn't be commenting, had I not been subjected to this against my will.
