At the '67 Congress you can meet other safety people, with the same problems and responsibilities as yourself. You can exchange views and ideas on accident preven tion, health, hygiene, and fire prevention ... on safety in industry, traffic, school, at home and on the farm. You can see the largest of all safety equipment exhibits at the Congress ... an opportunity for you to make wellinformed buying decisions for your company. This four-day educational program, planned and pre sented by the National Safety Council, can be your most thought-provoking, most worthwhile safety expe rience in 1967. 41 Make plans early to attend the 1967 Congress and bring the other people in your organization who have safety responsibilities.

Give recognition for good individual i.voids of salt (v. .1 Keep good records, provide a follow-up and lake some kind of disciplinary action on those who will not act in a safe maimer. The Oklahoma Department of Highways started a safety program a few years ago, and as you will probably agree, maintaining public employee interest in a safety program is Minimally difficult due to the mature of public employment. However, the training pro;,'-am did stimulate enough interest and added knowledge so that there was a marked reduction in accidents on the job. As proof of this, the Department was able to tutu as much as $46,000 back to the workmen's compensation fund in one year. Prior to the last two years, the accident rate for our Oklahoma Highway patrol cars had been relatively high, until we started a defensive driving course and relied on accident records to lead us 1o change the color of the flashing warning lights on the hack of the cars from red to amber. We learned that the amber light gives our troopers and their cars better protection. Apparently this is true since red has become so commonplace. Training is essential, hut let us never forget that practically all human endeavor, from the cradle to the grave, is based on awards. The baby Icarus to walk by striv ing to get something that is held out of his reach by his parents. When he walks lie gels the reward. A student in school is recognized for excellence in scholarship. An athlete strives harder when lie knows he will receive the cheers from the crowd. The military gives medals, ribbons, badges for outstanding services. Awards are given for church ac tivities that arc above the routine. G'vc recognition its due place in your prop. v.n because if you don't, others will pa>s you in their safely efforts as they use litis lever.

These materials include (1) chemicals such as sulfur, anti oxidants, accelerators, and metallic oxides, (2) icini"icing materials such as carbon black and hard clays. (3) inert fillers such as roll on shearing, hydrated silicas, and asIwMns, (t) pigments such as iron or chro mium salts. (5) processing aids such its talc .and zinc stearate, and (6) rubber and plastic dust from mechanical action. When these dusts tire dispersed into the wm krooni atmosphere, they are capable of causing two types of hazards about which we arc greatly concerned. One is the cxi;(psijm .and fire hazard, the ollipr is the fuN'ici or occupational health hazard. I or tin explosion and lire hazard to exist, the necessity conditions arc a sufficiently dense dust cloud, adequate oxygen, air, or t#hitr supporters of combustion, and an Ig nition source intense enough ami in contact with tile dust long enough to raise the temperature of part of the dust mixture to the ignition point.

Other methods may provide better control, reduce maintenance problems, and reduce material or product cost. I would like to illustrate various a[t preaches to dust control in the rubber attd plastics industry. 1. A very dusty operation existed some years ago in otic of oor plants where bale* of synthetic rubber were opened. The syn thetic rubber bales were coated with talc The hides were stored in a large room about 200 ft. long. Very high dust concen trations resulted from the opening of the bides and movement of the bales to pro duction. The (|ucstiiin was how to solve this problem.

The Woodvillc Plant ranked'at or near the bottom in freipinicy of disabling injuries and duration of absence because of industrial accident. Workmen's compensation costs for Wood villc for the two previous years exceeded costs and budget allocated to that plant by the central office. On July 3, I960, as an effort to improve the plant's safety record, the production superintendent sent tin: following letter to all general foremen with instructions to dis ms it with the shift foremen under their supervision: "Dining the past eight mouths much has been said and written about cost reduc tion. Each foreman should and must he an efficient manager, and his desire to re duce costs must embrace safety.

I'lic monumental efforts in safety training lid controlling highway drivers made by the rucking industry is living proof of what an be achieved in the field of driver trainig. The average highway transport driver f today is well-worthy of his title, "gentleinn of the road." If the trucking industry an achieve this high level, surely we can rain and instruct drivers within the four rails of our plants, and achieve a similar Itcccss. Each plant, each organization, has its own cculiaritics and it would be difficult to tiggcst a driver training program tailored sadly to the needs of all organizations, olh large or small. However, it is jiossiblc establish basic concepts covering the Who? -- What? -- How? -- Why?" of river training that would be applicable to irgc or small organizations. This can perhaps be best defined in some ritten terms of reference that clearly outnos these facts and may lake the form of a olicy letter, or other written procedure. The formal promulgation of a policy such is this has the advantage of clearly informig all concerned what has to be done and nMircs the cooperation of all levels of nployces. The next questions to be answered, as we jrganize our driver training, are "Who will ;e train?"--and "What will we tell them?" It is necessary to produce, or adopt, an jicrator's manual which contains all estabSjhed safety and vehicle operating procedures id is issued to all trainees for future refcncc. It is most important that when an emoyee . successfully completes any plateau [ a driver training program, this is recogized and recorded with the issuance of a ifety permit to the employee. A safety permit does many things to many oplc and should be an integral part of a iver training program: 1. It recognizes a degree of driver ability. 2.

As the condition worsened, he called a physician and they agreed that he must have permitted himself to be cxjioscd to excessive welding fume. He was treated symptomatically. On the fourth morning after the exposure lie was found dead in bed. Within a short time after this, a second worker on the same job be came affected. By this time, it was known that the silver solder contained over 20 per cent cadmium and that the condition was actually due to excessive cx|x>surc to cad mium fume. Following the report of this fatal and accompanying uoufatal rase, 10 additional cases were reported to the Cali fornia Bureau of Occupational Health, three of these fatal. A detailed aceount of the circumstances of the two inili -ses is to 130 131 1966 National safely Congress lie published soon by Dr. Mcclor P. Blcjcr of die California !)c|inr!mcnt in (lie Journal of Occupational Medicine. Here \vc have an example of a material which does not immediately become exces sively irritating; one concerning which we have not had too many published reports of difficulty. Very possibly, the reason for this was that eases may have occurred but, being sporadic, they have not been recognized nor published. Since a welder or a worker engaged in brazing operations may have been using solders over the years containing no cad mium, and then such a solder is required for the next day's work, it is vital that not only the health and safely personnel hut also the foreman in charge of the o|icratiou should lie well informed concerning the hazards from cadmium oxide fume. Another example of hazardous materials in this category is chlorinated naphthalene. This waxy material is melted in /order to impregnate wire or cable insulation or elec trical condensers. The va|>or from this syn thetic wax condenses in the air above the melting pot as a fume. On being inhaled in excessive amounts it may cause serious and even fatal liver damage. Among the earlier fatal eases as result of such an exposure, one worker died with a diagnosis of yellow atrophy of the liver. At that time there had been no such experience with this material and it was thought that the fact that this worker was a rather heavy drinker may have led to his death. A second worker continued tlTc operation. When lie developed a liver condition which also termi nated fatally, but with no history of alcoholic beverage complication, investigations were in stituted which definitely implicated this harm less looking and non-irritating synthetic wax as the producer of these liver conditions. As further categories of knowledge con cerning hazardous materials, we should in clude those materials actually in use in a plant, together with those which may be contemplated for early future use. Possibly the best and earliest source of information concerning such materials is through the purchasing agent. Accordingly, it is strongly recommended that a close liaison be set up between the purchasing agent and the health and safety personnel so that early informa 132 00058!! v * iliulUflrial Safely Subject Sessimts tion will he provided concerning materials This, however, is r felt that much of the li.iz- in use and those which arc to be ordered. . . connection with talc i`n*' arth.MtSSt*.

It may In: however, that we are attacking symptoms isillier than causes. We have, as I have saiil, begun to explore the nature ami true cause of industrial accidents since it is apparent that .legislation, regulations, and good intentions do not in themselves suhe the dilemma of rising accidents. They do, however, provide us with a legal, and we hope precise, framiwork to operate within. Willi our study, we hope not only to deliue the industrial accident and the role of the chief participants, hut to he able in, some measure to anticipate the future and legislate, not only for this period, but in anticipation of the developments of the new industrial climate, f might say that we, as every prevention body is, are working to wards the day when we can no longer be employed. We arc assured by many economic planners that tbc advent of sophisticated technology (automation, if you will), will relegate the industrial workers to pushing buttons and performing monitoring func tions for three hours a day. Our chief aim at the moment is to keep workers alive and kicking until that day arrises. Ilowcier, 1 might note that since h-s than two per cent of our industry is fully, automated, I feel up immediate need for a job re-training course. Our department has continual exchanges of ideas, statistics ami operation descrip tions with our other provinces and other countries. We have just recently completed the first of two ministers' safety conferences where representatives of trade unions man agement, and government have come to gether to re-examine ideas generated liv in dividual rtfjscarclt. We have, as well, been host and kffy participant at the recent Interwjljiuital l.ahour Organization Manpower Conference, which discussed ill some detail the international aspects of safety education and preventive tcchnitpies. All of us then--government, management, ami employees--share the responsibility for industrial safely. As government bccumcs more adept at defining it legislatively and management more adept in recognizing it as a method of enhancing the balance sheet and employees learn to use the safety me chanisms provided for their own protection, we may yet find formulas that work better Ilian our current situation-by-situation ap proach. Frankly, I cannot give you omni scient answers, but l know that if we, to gether, carefully select our questions and behave honestly and with proper concern iu the area of our responsibilities, we will arrive at solutions that lessen and may eventually stop industrial accident and death.

I lelcgatcs who attended the labor sessions were asked to submit written questions con cerning safety problems within their areas of operation, or questions that were gen erated by the safety sessions that they at tended during the Congress week.

(hi the matter of physical examinations, the men within the local union call schedule periodi cal examinations with their own personal physicians. Mr. Ilurch: I am opposed to pre-employ ment physical examinations as a condition of employment, but 1 am uni against physical examinations. T think the point in this question is an ini|inrlant one ami that is that we must he our lirolher's keeper. Mo-I unions have negotiated health and welfare plans, and these should include at lea I an nual physical examinations. Of course, llu-re is nothing slopping an individual from seek ing fiis own (icrsoiia! doctor periodically; in fai l he will probably discuss his job iihuc freely and the Ivpe of work dial lie per forms with his doctor.

This is probably because we tin mil have enough inspectors lo cover the areas. Mr. (irecite: In Ibis ease, Ihcre is a qm-slion of one person being a hazard lo otlu-r persons on the job.

They should sit down and work mil the procedures that arc to he followed so that it becomes the responsibility of both labor and man agement to see that they arc euforecd. In the past two years the 1I1EW and various'managements have established over 8(10 joint labor-management safety commit tees. I am very strongly in favor of these eommiltees establishing ground rules. This is a definite advantage for management. We have had cases in some of our locals where the union member was brought before the executive board and informed that the union agreed to these rules and regulations and he. as a member of the union, must comply. Mr. Howling: We deal with the Ontario Federation of Labor and favor its support of joint labor-management methods of rule and regulation writing, hut 1 would like to add that once these rtdes and regulations arc adopted they should be put into the working man's language. They should be de veloped in such a way that the working man knows what they are and lie under stands them clearly. In Canada, we print these rules and regulations in French for our French workers. The union also has an ohligdtiim to Sec that these rules arc ex plained. Moderator: A number of years ago Re public Steel Cori'oration wanted to commu nicate to all of its employees a belter un derstanding of the economic problems of the company and hiftv they affect the work ers. They went to Brookings Institute for advice, then developed a play with 13 char acters such as a farmer, business man, stock holder, manager, etc. The employees were assigned various parts and participated in the play at various locations all over the country. The principle idea was that par ticipation would improve understanding ami respect. The company paid thousands of dollars for that idea, and it is believed that the same results can be obtained if the union is allowed to participate in developing safety rules. An example of such cooperation is the Carborundum Company's joint safety work with the Oil, Chemical, and Atomic Workers Un' This relationship is work 'll) ing extremely well and practically every one that I know of has worked very successfully. Moderator: IJo you think safety programs should lie in the labor contraet? Ur. Van Alla: Certainly! A contract has : to do with conditions of employment, and one of the major conditions of employment is your coulimicd life. It seems to me that labor groijps, in general, have been most riftlii.ss in1' that conditions of employment liajrc not been included under safety. How ever, this is certainly no excuse for this to continue. Mr. Greene: The contractors in the Dis- trict of Columbia must comply with the i regulations of our department. One of the ;i problems with safety by reference Is that most of the workers, and some of the man agement, do not have any idea of what these regulations arc. They don't understand them. If safety is in the contract, the work ers ought to have enough information so that they can know whether the regulations \ arc being complied with or not. If they are ., not, the workers can act accordingly. If their wages under the contract were not being paid, they would do something, about it immediately. I believe that a union should act immediately if there is a hazard ous situation that needs correcting in accord ance with accepted codes and regulations, llmvever, if people do not understand the regulations they do not know when tilt regulations arc violated. The answer, of course, is training. Without training, the regulations will be tniimplcmciitcd. Ur. Van Alta: 1 have read a significant amount of contracts which were signed by people who thought they had negotiated safety into the contract. The standard phrase >i is "the company will continue to provide, j safe and healthful places in which to work." I This is really just saying that the company ; will continue its existing bad practices. That is not negotiating safety. It is as worthless as . j a contract that says the company will con- ; tinue to pay wages. i There is meaningful language which can be negotiated into union contracts and nearly all of the international unions cun provide . this type of language. ; Mr. Bareli: If the union has already sat '] down with management and worked out ; acceptable safety rules, the contract can con- ! tain meaningful language that is also simple ' For example, "both sides agree to ipfjtcWI (hat the cxhatiyl fumes of at all times, to the safety rtdes agreed |n| ^O^pty^'5nmie<liulc|y . nhvyii aio., taken into jointly." This kcci* unnecessary wordsSfflP *Uie passenger cmii|Kirtiueiit' irihm eah. This of the contract and lias the advantage that everybody knows what is being referred to. It also skirts the situation where the con tract is filled with language aimed at every body's particular grievance. The important tiling is to get together and work out the rules and regulations by which you arc going to live and then firm them up in a binding agreement so that everyInn ly knows where they stand. Actually the original question -- should safety be negotiated into a union contract? -- has been answered by the National Lalior Relations Board. Not t<xi long ago, there was a decision which was upheld after it was appealed, and it will probably be a landmark case in labor relations. The final ruling was that safety was a mandatory subject of col lective bargaining. could constitute a serious health hazard and we are wondering what the National Safety Council can do about Ibis situation. Dr. Van Alla: Actually the Council can not do anything about this sort of condition except publicize the hazard.

The same rules apply when working voltages from a basket as when working from a pole.

A man can use rubber insulation for up to 20,000 volts; however, if his nose is still exposed, tint is where be will make contact. Edison Electric Institute made an analysis of accidents over the years and practically all of the contacts over 5,000 volts arc not band contacts. So, the rubber gloves are not enough, and it's not reasonable to cx|H:ct a man to work completely enclosed in rubber. In the opinion of our organization, 5,000 volts is the limit for working energized lines except via hot slick. Moderator: A major Chicago cab com pany has vehicles which have tiic fresit air problems handled under Canadian laws? Mr. Dotaling: We have an arrangcrneiil with the Director and ('liicf Inspector. In dustrial Safely Branch. Ontario Depart incut of Labour, Toronto, whereby I meet in Ins office to discuss any problem that involves steel workers. If there is a violation of the Industrial Safety Act, the initial step rests with the official of the local union involved. The local should extend every cllort to get the violation corrected. However, if no cor rective measures are taken the repot I is sent to my ofiirc. I forward it to the In dustrial Safety Drancli and an inspector is sent to the plant to check into the condition. Subsequently, we get a report from the Di rector of the Industrial Safely Branch indi cating whether the complaint was upheld or rejected. The foundry section of our union has a somewhat more refined method of liaison. The government inspector ' foundries t AI lVoei A'atioiml Safety Congress must contact llic local union officials before In: visits a plant ami must lake the local's appointed representative with him during his lour of the plant. In addition, the factory inspectors in the I'lovincc of Ontario carry a warrant with them and, if they are opposed hy the cniplojcr, the inspector uses the telephone to rail the local magistrate. A policeman is dispatched to the plant to serve the warrant no the person obstructing the1 inspection and ha. the person removed from the premises until the inspection is completed. Moderator: Is there a standard clearing house, llmt records a complete list of radia tion exposures to workers handling radio active materials? Dr. Van Alto: Not in the United States, Unfortunately. There was a hill introduced in the last Congress, but Congress did not act on it. We have high hopes that it will lie handled during the next Congress, al though we understand that there is consid erable opposition to this hill front manage ment sources. Minti1rotor: flow can rvc get management to correct unsafe conditions promptly? Mr. Daneling: I can only .give yon an illiii'tralion of what happened inl| the city of Hamilton, Ontario. 1 was conducting semi nars in Hamilton when one of the crane upciators in the plant called me at my home, lie, informed me that the wheels on the crane had licepmc so worn that the electric sluies that pick up the electricity had dropped to where they were striking stud holts, caus ing them to fall to the fldbr below. I called the shop foreman and he admitted that the condition was unsafe. I then phoned the Director of the Ontario Industrial Safely Branch and lie sent an inspector within 35 minutes. The inspector was in the plant for 10 minutes, lie shut down the entire plant. Management was then obligated to bring in a contractor to icplaie the crane wheels. The plant was shut dimn for two shifts. Mr. Greene: We have a way of getting things done also; however, it is sometimes rather late. When we. receive a complaint we send an inspector to the location. Usually the condition existed for some time before wv receive the complaint. It has bothered the worker, and lie has probably complained to various people but lie doesn't contact us until the condition gets serious. Mr. Colt!: I think it must be apparent that the answer to this question depends in a large measure on the geographic area in which the plant is located. Sonic stales have line laws which will lake care of these things if you push them. However, other, stales arc quite! ilax and backward. Alr/yCuinprlfH you believe you arc work ing in it}hazardous situation and feel morally certain that you arc right in your belief, then you should refuse to work on such operations until they can lie examined by proper and qualified authorities to determine if ihc conditions need correcting. Mr. Burch: I endorse what John says, hut I would like to add (hat union strength varies geographically. A lot will depend upon the knowledge and guts of the local business agents. Moderator: What are the effects of as bestos dust? Dr. Van Alla: Breathing excessive amounts of asbestos dust over a period of 25 to .15 years, depending upon the amount and (he person, will result in shortness of breath, circulatory and heart problems, and the person will probably die of heart failure. In addition, you will probably get no as sistance from workmen's compensation, if you arc under most jurisdictions. That is the classical picture of asbestosis. But, in the last few years, we are discovering that asbestos is a rather prolific producer of a variety of cancers of the lung and sur rounding tissues. Asbestos is a skinny little crystal, like a needle, and it works into the tissues and promotes cancers. One variety is appearing in rather sub stantial numbers among asbestos workers-- it lias always been there, but now it is be ginning to be diagnosed. This is a subject about which we don't know nearly as much as we thought we did 20 years ago. I might say that excessive amounts of asbestos dust is only enough to constitute a slight haze in the air. The situations in which asbestos is used arc highly deserving of competent professional assessment. Moderator: How can unions get such professional assessment in rases where they feel the plant hygienist or medical per sonnel are not competent? 12 Dr. Fon Alla: There arc sever! i|ttnlilicd physicians in the country act as consultants. Also, some si departments have personnel who can tin mitor asbestos operations and render opinions. (Comment from the lloor)--Dr. Van Alta, you mentioned you can't get compensation for asbestos disabilities in most jurisdictions. The law has changed in most jurisdic tions in the country during the last few years so that you may he able to sue the construction company, the architects, and en gineers who built (lie plant without prujier ventilation. This can he considered for full recovery for the wrongful death of a work er or for injuries. This is a very important new area of protection for workers, not only to get damages where there lias been disability but to prevent the continuation of the condition in the future. Moderator: What services or aid should be given or offered to local unions from the safely staff of an international union? Mr. Burch: The safety director should develop training programs, or at least out lines, for use hy local union safely personnel. He should supply materials (|ioslers, dcrals, technical data, etc.) and act as a research consultant in safety and health matters. He should answer <|iieslions received via letter or telephone. lie. should gather statistics, which requires the cooperation of local unions. The international union safety director should represent his union mcmlicrs ami the trade union movement as a whole, on the various committees that write standards and codes which will effect the work of the union's members. The United Slates of America Standards Institute, the Society of Automotive Engineers, and (lie Society of Mechanical Engineers are examples of or ganizations that have these types of com mittees. Previously, participation hy union rep resentatives has hecn minimal and we arc (bung our best to change this situation. This is one of the most important activities that safety personnel of international lalior or ganizations can undertake. There arc plenty of openings hut labor hasn't sought rep resentation. \\ lien labor does liceome a part of these committees, it has been my ex perience that labor representatives arc wel come and offer valuable contributions. 000 r: l i. c; l-ohor Session: rredt) imp.m.ml tide iiieiil and that is lop iii.uiageinent siippoii. This is \cn important; however, il is also essential that the man on the job suppnil the safely activities. Too many local unions still oiler only lip service to accident pie vention. Until local union leadership pushes accident prevention, the man on the job will continue to he unconcerned. Mr. ll'hilelioitse: Let ns not overlook the fact that many international labor oigauizalions do not have a safely director or safety deparluieul. h'or them, the lirsl lliiug they can do is establish such a deparluieul and staff. (Comment from the lloor, hy Joseph Leo nard)--The Longshoremen's union installed accident prevention activities in the Interna tional Union office and made, it mandatory that each local should have a safely pro gram. That was four years ago. To this day, I have to carry a hat when I visit the various locals in older to get these fellows moving. I do not believe that the International Union office can do much until the local unions are willing to accept il ami support il. In addition, the rank and file members uinsl provide support to llieir local union officers. Mr. Kinntel: Our lulerualioiial Union has rondiiiied many safety and couqiviisalinn clinics llirouglioiil tile United States and Canada over the past 2.1 years. We have fairly good success in attracting local union pixiplc to attend these clinics for three or four days at a lime. Moilernlor: I lues the District of Columbia have the right to make it's own safety codes through it's appointed commissioners, or are the safely rules of the District enacted by the Congress of the United Stales? Mr. Greene: The District, lluongh it's Minimum Wage and Industrial Safely Board, has the right to make safety codes. They handle all of the investigations ami conduct the hearings necessary to develop these codes. This privilege conies fiom Con gressional legislation. Miiderohir: llow do we sell safely In our union members? Mr. Cold: I believe that you luusl estab lish. within lour lucmlivrs, a desiie. You have to give lliriu a chaine In patliripalc ill the problems. Let them assist with first aid training and community action. The I'JM National Sajcty Congress worker must understand hnw accident pre vention will bcnclil liini, personally. Vim cannot sell ju-d once in n while. Ads for new automobiles dn not occur once in a while. They arc published continuously. The same continuing sales pilch is necessary to keep a union safety program rolling. You have to work at it.' (Comment from Hob Wilkins)--I feel certain that the only way accident prevention ran lie effectively sold to 'union members and their families is through effective de monstrations. Demonstrative presentations slick in a persons mind much longer and are more effective in changing habits and atti tudes. Films are one method of demonstrat ing what can be done to avoid accidents or reduce hazards. Of course, this requires more time in preparing safety presentations and oftentimes costs money. I am sure that all of you will agree that lake ('mid does an outstanding job of teach ing accident prevention to people from all walks of life and you will notice that he uses demonstrations wherever possible. With reference to the continuing complaint that management cannot get the cooperation of the union or the men when they wish to initiate a certain type of accident pre vention program, the primary reason for this illiillicithy is the fact that management feels that the safety program is not only their responsibility, but .that it is their privilege In develop and enforce it as they see fit. These types of procedures often rim into difficulty because most people resist some thing that is forced upon them. However, most people arc willing to cooperate with practically any project or program if they have some voice in the manner in which the project or program is developed. As an example, if management wants to initiate a safety-spectacle program, it is extremely helpful if they will ask the union to appoint two or three representatives to sit with management and develop the pro gram which will later become mandatory. WIicii tltis cooperation is enjoyed from be ginning to end, tiic program will always be a success because both parties feel tiiat the program was developed properly, and both parties will cooperatively assist in see ing to it that the program is put into effect. Regarding the question of what labor can do almnt industrial hygirne problems, I be lieve that if the state iaimr department or other rmircrncd organizations cannot provide industrial hygiene personnel to study situa tions Itclievcd to lie hazardous by the union, then the union should have the opportunity to hire it's own consulting industrial hygien ist to study the situation and give an un biased report. This should satisfy the de sires of tiny union membership and should assipll in avoiding hazardous situations which mayfbc overlooked by management. (Comment from the floor by Mr. l'hilo) --If you don't mind, I would like to say something in general about a problem we, as lawyers, have in representing injured people. I have been interested in one very important area of safety and I refer to suits against manufacturers of machinery or safety equipment that result in an injury to a worker. Our position is not aided by the existence of weak standards and weak positions by local and international unions. In particular, I have during the past year presented cases of 37 workers who have lost hands in power presses. I have just spent some time in the Power Press and Forging Section sessions, listening to speak ers on points of operation guarding. It is my opinion that alxnit 50,1X10 presses in the United Slates arc guarded by a trap instead of a safety device. These are the pull-back guards. I think it is predictable that a work er who operates a press equipped with these pull-back devices for 30 years is bound to lose a hand. I represent some clients who have lost both hands. I don't believe lhat the National Safety Council is ever going to suggest that the pull-back devices arc unsafe. This is prob ably because the Power Press and Forgings Section basically represents industry and management. However, the unions can and should do something about this situation. They ought to get these devices banned in every slate in the country. The pull-back devices violate the two principles of power press safely. First, every device or guard must have a fail safe mechanism; second, the worker's hands should never be placed between the dies when the machine is run ning. General Motors, Ford, and Chrysler will not use these pull-back devices on any of their thousands of presses. They recognize 14 I Labor Sessions they are a Irap. ll is the smaller shops which do not have cllcclivc accident preven tion engineering in the planl, where these devices exist. I recently talked to a cor|mratc safety director who I thought, should know belter. However, his company is being advertised as having pull-hack t\|ic guards on |>owcr presses in several of its plants. The cor porate safety director admitted this was true, lie went on to say that this type of device was used in some plants liecuusc tiic local union insisted on the pull-back devices. I believe that the local union safety per sonnel were undoubtedly good, conscientious safety people hut were not safety sophisti cated. This point of operation guarding is a complex problem. Dr. Van Alia: What Mr. l'hilo says is perfectly true. Fait safe design is partic ularly important when ytm'rc talking almnt power presses. It is true that there is no failure of a pull-back device which is a safe failure. I'.vet v conn iernble failine i. a hazardous failure. (Comment from the floor)-- I disagree with the idea of including industrial hygiene services in a union roiilru'l. I am with (ho Stale l.abor 1 lipartmcnl of Iowa and am director of the industrial inspectors. We have one of the finest imliHlrial hygiene lalmralorics in the United Stales. What we really need is support from the unions at Hie stale level when it comes lo Imtlgcl time. The Slate liiirean of f.abor doesn't receive the support from the unions when it conies time for requesting monies to provide ade quate factory inspection and industrial hy giene survey work. The Manufacturers As sociation arc there and they lobby against our budget continuously. Our Safely Com mission is currently operating on a budget of $10,000. We asked for $39,000. The point is that the stale has the facilities in adequate equipment and laboratories. Hot we need more support from labor. OFFICERS OF THE LABOR CONFERENCE NATIONAL SAFETY COUNCIL 1966-67 I'icr President far Labor--Hunter P.
