At every place where a scaffold is used under circumstances that might lead to injuries to the workmen, there should be a first-aid outfit, containing supplies sufficient to treat minor injuries. On every large construction job there should also be at least one man who has a thorough knowledge of the proper methods for rendering first-aid to the injured, and he should be supplied with a more extensive outfit. It is important, in rendering first-aid, to remember that it is skill and knowledge that count, and not good intentions. A great deal of harm can be done by the well-meaning efforts of an uninstructed person in attempting to give first-aid to an injured man, and unless the service is rendered by a man who has received thorough instruction in the art, it is often better to merely await the arrival of a physician, without attempting to render any aid except to check copious bleeding or to perform artificial respiration. It is always better to do something, --even if it is the wrong thing, --rather than to allow the injured man to die from loss of blood or from asphyxiation due to the cessation of his breathing. Whenever a firstaid cabinet is kept at hand, whether it is on a construction job or elsewhere, it should be kept in a dry, accessible place, and its location should be made known to every employee, so that it can be found without a moment of unnecessary delay. The addresses of several physicians who can be had upon short notice should be posted in some conspicuous place, together with their telephone numbers. If there is a telephone on the job these addresses should be posted close to it, to avoid loss of time in putting in an emergency call. First-aid services should always be regarded as just what their name.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Safety Engineering: Applied to Scaffolds Scaffolds are employed widely and by many different classes of workmen; but as they are erected for temporary use only, they seldom receive the thoughtful consideration that is given to permanent structures. They are badly designed and badly built, as a rule, and all too often the materials that are used in them are poor in quality and deficient in size and quantity. In fact there appears to be a wide-spread and almost universal belief to the effect that a scaffold is not worth serious study; that anybody who can drive nails can build one that will serve; and that anything that may happen to be at hand is good enough to go into it. The result is, that bricklaying, carpenter work, painting, decorating, and many other operations in which men must work at some considerable height, and life and limb are constantly at stake, are often performed by the aid of scaffolds that are distinctly dangerous, and altogether unfit for the purpose for which they were intended. The very fact that scaffolds must be erected is sometimes entirely overlooked in making bids for building operations and other extensive work of a similar nature, and it is by no means uncommon for a sub-contract or to make no provision of his own for the materials for his scaffolds, but to rely upon picking up something about the job that will serve his purpose. These remarks are not inspired by mere pessimism. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
