I've Always Done It That Way

If you have been providing safety audits, training, et al for any length of time, you've heard many excuses for NOT doing things the safe way. How often have you referred to Heinrich's Theory of Accident Causation only to see employees' eyes glaze over? Well, here's a photo that might help. You may already have seen it, but it was provided by Fort Lauderdale's OSHA Area Director Darlene Fossum in a presentation to the Florida Suncoast Chapter of ASSE. I thought you might like to see it again. It may have an impact on those "hard to reach" workers on your jobsites.
