Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Industrial Accident Prevention IN preparing the following material for publication, it has been the author's aim to make it an authoritative statement of accident prevention methods, proven by the road test of actual experience to be effective and practical. With this end in view photographs have been chosen for illustrations in preference to drawings or sketches, since a photograph which shows a device in actual use carries much more conviction than a drawing of the device, which may exist only on paper. The broad lines of protection common to all industries are now well defined. Among these might be mentioned Building Construction and Arrangement, Power Transmission and Control, and the Safeguarding of Shop and general Mechanical and Electrical Equipment. The special hazards peculiar to certain industries have also been determined in some cases, although there are still various branches of manufacture where little safety work has been done, and in which new and interesting developments may be expected during the next few years.

This book was released on 2018-03-12 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Prevention of Industrial Accidents The prevention of accidents absolutely is of course impossible. But much more can be done to prevent accidents than at first sight appears. Statistics regarding the causes of industrial accidents in the United States have not been collected except in fragmentary form. It is but lately in fact that much interest has been taken in the matter. This is perhaps not surprising as it is not long since the responsibility of the employer for the safety Of his employees was brought home to him. Employers' Liability insurance to meet this increased responsibility is comparatively new in this country, having been first transacted in 1886, and only within the last few years having reached its present high development.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Safeguards: For the Prevention of Industrial Accidents In connection with the illustrations of safety devices we desire to say that we do not wish to appear as advertising any particular device. There are a great many devices which are just as practical as those we describe or illustrate, but of course it is impossible for us to include them all in this book. In the preparation of this book we have derived information and assistance from many sources. We should like to make acknowledgment of each instance in this place, but that will be recognized as impracticable. In a general way, however, we can and do thank the manufacturers of safe guarded machines and safety devices who have furnished us with pictures and descriptions, and the factory owners who have aided us in obtaining photographs of machinery and conditions in their plants. We also make acknowledgment of our indebtedness for many valuable suggestions to text-books dealing with. Industrial conditions, to trade papers and other periodical publications, to national and state publications concerning industrial dangers and safeguards, and to our corps of liability inspectors.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Safety: Methods for Preventing Occupational and Other Accidents and Disease The author has illustrated the underlying principles of the world movement for safety and industrial hygiene by means of typical examples, Showing the methods through which simple and practical safeguards are being applied to further these ends. This application has resulted in lowered costs and increased production, with cumulative tendency toward greater knowledge, caution, and self-control on the part of the workers. While the subject of accident prevention and shop hygiene has been treated in a broad way, the treatment has necessarily been limited to include only those features common to the generality.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Work-Accidents and the Law An equally momentous change manifests itself in the atti tude being taken by engineers, superintendents and mechanics toward the prevention of accidents. The fact that the cases studied by Miss Eastman fell in a period before recent develop ments in this direction makes them more truly a reflection of the unregulated industrial practice with which the American public has to deal. At the same time, in Mr. Beyer's articleql we are able to present, as an illustration of methods of advance, the work of prevention extensively developed by the United States Steel Cor poration under a central committee appointed in May, 1908.

Download or read book Liability and Compensation Insurance written by Ralph H. Blanchard and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-12 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Liability and Compensation Insurance: Industrial Accidents and Their Prevention, Employers' Liability, Workmen's Compensation, Insurance of Employers' Liability and Workmen's Compensation The inadequacy of the employers' liability principle gave rise to a demand for more liberal legislation and the period beginning with 1911 has been marked by the enactment of workmen's compensation laws granting benefits to workmen for practically all injuries occurring during working hours. Such laws are now in force in thirty-two states and two territories, and an act was passed in 1916 covering all civil employees in the service of the Federal Government. These developments have broadened and intensified the need for insurance to relieve employers of the uncertain and heavy burden of payments to employees and to secure workmen in their rights to receive compensation. To furnish insurance commensurate with these needs both private and governmental agencies have been created and extended. Workmen's compensation and its insurance involve numberless intricate problems, legislative, administrative, and technical. The revolutionary nature of the principle and its rapid adoption have made it difficult to arrive at adequate solutions. Much remains to be done, but the accomplishments of legislators, public and private officials, and insurance scientists have been remarkable, and what might have been a growth of many years has been compressed into six. The work of these six years has been fundamental, precedent has not been allowed to rule, and the future will probably see the development of present principles rather than the discovery of new ones.

Download or read book Organization in Accident Prevention Classic Reprint written by Sydney Whitmore Ashe and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-14 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Organization in Accident Prevention Success in organizing accident prevention work at the present time, depends upon minimizing labor turnover, upon the person ality of the safety engineer in charge, upon the kind of educa tional work conducted, and upon the personal interest which this work is able to arouse in the average employee. Educa tional work should be carried on systematically and should be adaptable to changing work conditions. When production is heavy, when many new employees are being hired, when epi demies of sickness exist, and weather conditions are severe, when employees have become accustomed to bulletin boards, moving pictures and safety literature of all sorts, ' and enthusiasm has waned, the safety engineer is confronted With a difficult situation. When this time arrives, if the safety man familiar with the edu cational methods of other companies, changes his methods, using new ideas obtained at safety conventions, puts new people on committees, institutes new, original ways of presenting his facts, he will find his enthusiasm return and results will follow. An occasional vacation is a vital factor in restoring enthusiasm. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mental Causes of Accidents Writing a book is, of course, an educational experience. The author always comes out of it knowing much more than when he went in. It is a poor subject, indeed, that doesn't broaden and deepen before the delighted eyes of the writer as he gives months to a close examination of its meanings and relations. The pleasure which I found in the development of this theme grew out of the fact that a topic, which began as a limited study of the mental causes of accidents for the instruction of safety men, quickly unfolded itself as a peculiarly direct and revealing approach to the whole problem of psychology in industry. The minds of men disclose themselves only in action. A text on psychology may be formulated in terms of general principles and theories without reference to the particular actions which gave rise to these generalizations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Education in Accident Prevention: A Treatise Showing How Accident Prevention May Be Made a Part of Regular School Instruction Without the Addition of Another Subject to the Curriculum Notwithstanding the remarkable work which has been done in hundreds of industrial plants, deaths and serious injuries being reduced 50 to 90 per cent, the Safety Move ment in industry has not yet made the progress that is possible, and Public Safety is still in its infancy. Managers of large industries are beginning to realize that the problem of industrial safety will not be solved until the idea of Safety has been incorporated into the community life; that is, until safety instruction is given in the schools and until Safety is established in the thought and life of the people on the same basis as good health. The fact that two-thirds of all the accidental deaths in the United States occur outside of industry emphasizes the importance of a campaign to promote Safety on the streets and in the homes. Safety engineers are coming to.see that the foundation of Safety must be laid in the schools. When the children in the schools are instructed how to protect themselves and are taught to respect Safety, then through these children the parents in the homes will be reached and influenced more effectively than in any other way.
