The Congress is always a big week, a worthwhile week for the 13,000 safety people who attend.
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 C ong ress. . . 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.
Make plans early to attend the 1967 Congress and bring the other people in your organization who have safety responsibilities.

3. Uvep good iywhxD, |>rovulc a follow-up and lake some kind of disciplinary action on those who will not act in a safe manner.
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 unusually difficult due to the nature of public employment. However, the training program did stiimdutc 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 turn 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 ami relied on accident records to lead us to change the color of the flashing warning lights on the back 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, but let us never forget that practically all human endeavor, from the cradle to the grave, is based oil awards. The baby learns to walk by striv ing to get something that is held out of his reach by bis parents. When he walks be gets the reward.
A student in school is recognized for excellence in scholarship. An athlete strives harder when he knows lie will receive the cheers from the crowd. The military gives medals, ribbons, badges for o u ts ta n d in g services. Awards arc given for church ac tivities (hat arc above the routine.
Give recognition its due place in your prog, am because if you don't, others will pass you in their safety efforts as they use this lever.
Because there arc many people who will not, or do not have enough reason to, safely, there must be an effective follow and, if necessary, disciplinary action, c

966 National Safety Congress
I specifically mentioned transport drivers. I was of course, referring to companies who employ a relatively few people as transport drivers, and not the great trucking industry. The monumental efforts in safety training and emit (idling highway drivers made hy the lilicking industry is living prnid of what can he achieved in the field of driver train ing. 'l iic average highway transport driver of today is well-worthy of his title, "gentle man of (lie road." If the trucking industry can achieve this high level, surely we can train and instruct drivers within the four walls of our plants, and achieve a similar success.
Each plant, each organization, has its own peculiarities and it would be difficult to suggest ;i driver training program tailored exactly to the needs of all organizations, both large or small. However, it is possible I establish basic concepts covering the "Who? -- What? -- How? -- Why?" of driver training that would be applicable to large or small organizations.
'fliis can perhaps be best defined in some written Inins iif reference that eleailv out lines Hum- tails and may take the fuim nl a policy letter, or other written procedure.
'flic formal promulgation of a policy such as this lias the advantage of clearly inform ing all concerned what has to he done and ensures (lie cooperation of all levels of employees.
The next questions to be answered, as we organize our driver training, are "Who will we train?"--and "What will we tell them?"
It is necessary to produce, or adopt, an operator's manual which contains all estab lished safety and vehicle operating procedures and is issued to all trainees for future ref erence.
It is most important that when an em ployee .successfully completes any plateau of a driver training program, this is recog nized and recorded with the issuance of a safely permit to the employee.
A safely permit does many things to many people and should be an integral part of a driver training program:
1. It recognizes a degree of driver ability.
2. It conveys a sense of accomplishment to (he employee.
J. It forms the base of your driver train ing records.

If you arc plagued with a high ncidcucc of accidents caused by itnpro|>cr vehicle op erations, don't just stand there and blame/ the driver -- maybe someone hasn't UfcdM time to tell the driver what he ought to da Remember "If the pupil hasn't learned, ill because the teacher hasn't taught.''

This session is co-sponsored by two groups, the American Industrial Hygiene Association and the American Association of Industrial Nurses. There will be four key speakers and the subjects tend to intcr-relatc. At the con clusion of the papers we will have a ques tion and answer period.
With the co-sponsorship of the American Industrial Hygiene Association and the American Association of Industrial Nurses, we have on the platform with us today their two presidents. First, William T. McCor mick, president of the American Industrial Hygiene Association and Assistant Director in charge of Occupational Hygiene in the Medical Department of Inland Steel Com pany, Chicago. He is also a member of the American Society of Safety Engineers, and many other related safely and hygiene groups.
McCormick:
The American Industrial Hygiene Associa tion is most pleased to be a co-sponsor of this program on Up to Date Industrial Hy giene. I am particularly pleased that the ladies who make up the membership of the American Association of Industrial Nurses arc also co-sponsors this morning.
In our company, the groups w h o arc con cerned with the health of workers both di rectly and indirectly enjoy a cordial and co operative relationship with each other. This lias been a benefit to both workers and the company alike. I think it is extremely im portant that those of us who have interests in the well being of people have the oppor tunity to meet together as groups periodical ly to share our information and to assist those in the common goal that we have. The program this morning consists of outstand ing speakers; I'm sure each has a message

We are most happy to have been invited to co-sponsor this session in the Safety Coagress and, on behalf of the Board of Di rectors of the American Association of In dustrial Nurses, I thank you for being aldt to share this experience with you.
As industrial nurses, we arc especially interested in all phases of safety and hy giene in our various job situations. Ai individuals we arc vitally concerned with safety at home, school, on the highway, or wherever we find ourselves in a community setting, not only for ourselves and familiid hut to be better informed and thus nun effective as occupational health nurses.
Wc hear much today about the team ay proacli to health, preventive medicine, and concern for the whole man, both on the jd and away from work. Wc believe that ( lakes a combined effort of all of us to.
knowledge must necessarily fall somewhat ' short of this Utopian goal. There are a - Dumber of categories of information which : should be known. I propose to explore a ' number of these.
Perhaps the most critically needed informa. lion is that concerning materials which may
cause serious illness or death without the ` worker realizing that iic is being subjected
to a dangerous atmosphere. An example of such material is one which has resulted in only sonic 20 deaths ns reported in the /literature over the last fifty years, and only .. three reported cases since 1956. Certainly, such a material should not deserve too great emphasis among the myriad of substances i which compete for a place in the overall f-knowledge of health, safety, and plant per*
; sonnet. But let us consider what the actual fads may he.

As the condition worsened, he called a physician and they agreed that lie must have permitted himself to be excised to excessive welding fume lie was treated symptomatically, t hi the fourth morning after the rxpnsotc hr was found dead in bed. Within a short time after this, a second worker on the same job be

actually due to excessive cx|osnrc to cad mium fume. Following the report of this fatal and accompanying nmifaCd rase. 10 additional cases were repotted (a the Cali fornia Bureau of Occupational Health, lime of these fatal. A detailed account of the circumstances of the two initial eases is to
I (I

lie |ul>tis1ic<! soon by Dr. Hector I \ iilcjcr of the California Department in (he Journal of Occupational Medicine.
Here we have an example of a material which does not immediately become exces sively irritating; one concerning which we have not bad too many published reports of difliicully. Very possibly, the reason for this was (hat cases may have occurred hill, being sporadic, they have not been recognized nor published.
Since a welder or a worker engaged In liia/iug operations may have been using solders over the years containing no cad mium, and then such a solder is required for lltc next day's work, it is vital that not only (lie health and safety personnel hut also the foreman in charge of the operation should he well informed concerning the hazards from cadmium oxide fume.
Another example of hazardous materials in tins category is chlorinated naphthalene. This waxy material is melted in prder to impregnate wire or cable insulation or elec trical condensers. The va|>or from this syn thetic wax condenses in (he air above the melting pul 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 (act that this worker was a rather heavy drinker may have led to Ids 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. l'ossibly the best and earliest source of information concerning such materials is through the purchasing agent. Accordingly, it is strongly recommended that a close liaison he set up between the purchasing agent and the health and safety personnel so that early informa
tion will he provided concerning materials in use and those which arc to he ordered.
These materials may best be discussed in categories related to their physical and physiological properties.
Among the most iinporlaut categories aie the dusts that produce the pneumoconioses. In the major industries involving exposure to silica dust, there tends to he a good knowl* edge of the fact that too much of these dusts will cause a lung condition which may be . disabling. Where the dust may contain crys
talline free silica, such as is Ifie case with molding sand in the foundry, or granite dust in a quarry or stone cutting shop, it is well understood that the greater the percentage of free silica in ibe dust the lower the dint concent ration should he in order to avoid the development of silicosis. It is known that workers should he given periodic X-ray examination, and that the extent of the dust
exposure should be determined by air anal yses, with control measures such as will be discussed later in this session.
Less knowledgeable, as a rule, are health and safety |>rrsoiiiiel concerning such ex posures in those operations where crystalline free silica may he used rather incidentally in an operation at a plant not normally con sidered to be a dusty industry. An example would be the use of silica fiour as a filler in a paint mixture or as inert material in a variety of products.

It would seem that everybody is well in
Somewhat the same situation occurs in comicctiou with a dusty material made up of diatomaceous earth, a form of amorphous
silica. The natural material has been found to cause a disabling silicosis when the ex posure exceeds 2 0 million particles per cubic foot. However, where the diatomaccous earth is subjected to a calcining operation, some of this amorphous free silica changes over to the crystalline form known as cristobalite. Depending upon whether the diatoma ccous earth is calcined with or without a flux, the percentage of (lie cristnhultlc. may be in the order of 2 0 per cent or .10 per cent, the latter willt the flux calcining. Ap plying the ACGIU formula, these calcined diatomaccous earths should be kept cither to 10 million itarluicH per cubic, foot or to seven million, in order to avoid lung injury.
In the category of metals, we would ex pect that all health and safety personnel arc familiar with lead as att occupational hazard and that proper precautions arc taken to prevent excessive exposure. In spite of this general knowledge, lead poisoning eases con tinue to occur in industry, not only in the industries that have produced the greatest number of eases over past years. A fter a report hi the literature that lead poisoning
eases were occurring in plastic manufacturing in Italy and a subsequent report of such eases in this industry in France, a group of lead |K>isoinng cases occurred in a plastic manufacturing operation in this country. Possibly if a close relationship had been maintained between the purchasing depart ment and the health and safety personnel, the exposure might have been brought under control without occurrence of cases.
formed concerning carbon monoxide, the gas which is responsible for more exposures than any other, and also the gas responsible for the gieatest iiiiiuher of eases of fatal asphyxiation. In areas where there is an active possibility of escape of gases contain ing carlam monoxide, there lends to he an increasing use of multipoint carbon mon oxide alarms.

Fortunately, for most fuel gas purposes natural gas is coming into uncaring use and this, of course, contains no carUm monoxide. Furthermore, where in earlier years supple mentary gas supplies have been provided through water-gas or ponliucr-gas installa tions, these arc today tiring replaced by liquified petroleum gas with no carbon mon oxide content. It is, of course, tiii|Hirtaut always to keep in mind that imperfect mmhost inn of untural gas or !.)*<! will produce a sufficient amount of corlmii monoxide to cause asphyxiation. Cases of carbon mon oxide asphyxiation have occurred over the years on Monday mornings where cold sys tems arc being heated with natural gas.

Hydrogen sulfide is formed wherever there is decomposition of materials containing sul fur under reducing conditions, and eases of multiple fatalities, from two to five, have occurred. Wherever materials containing sulfur are being handled, all workers should be briefed about the rapidly asphyxiating properties of this gas. It should be empha sized that at the higher concent rations the sense of smell docs not provide the warning to which one is accustomed on exposure to the lower concentrations of hydrogen sulfide. Workers should know ahead of time that, if one of them should collapse in some con fined area where hydrogen sulfide could be the cause, the fellow workers should not enter the confined area to rescue the victim without gas mask protection.

vauia has passed a law, unprecedented in the United Slates, that two of these -- bclanaplithylatninc and benzidine--may not be produced or used in that state. Some years ago, on the basis of animal experimentation,
it was believed that many of the high boiling oils from ralalylic cracking operations in oil refineries were severe producers of skin cancer. Extensive control measures were in stituted in many of the refineries to avoid contact with such oils. Over the years, ob servation has been continued of workers with some exposure to these oils ami in a recent publication it was reported that the hazard to humans from this source docs not appear lo lie as severe as initially contem plated.
Ionizing radiations of various types arc increasingly common throughout industry to day. Alpha, licta, and gamma radiations arc the most frequent, but neutron exposure may also be a factor. Where sources of these types of energy arc present, competent health physicists should survey the installations with appropriate instruments and make sure that adequate precautions arc observed.
A final category tliat is not a material, but a vibration, is that of noise. In plant areas where it is necessary to use an ele vated voice at a distance of a foot or so, or to shout in order to carry on a conversa tion, It is desirable to make a check of noise intensities with a sound level meter. Where the overall intensity exceeds 85 decibels, it is to be recommended that the sound level meter readings be supplemented witli read ings of intensities at sound pressure levels, certainly in the 3U0-6U0, 600 lo 120 0 , and the 1200 through 2-100 cycles per second bands. The American Academy of Ophthalmology and Otolaryngology recommends that the intensity in each of these bands should not exceed 85 decibels where a steady noise con-

self and liis fellows, who uses Itis liis knowl edge, tools, and safety c/|iupment to Ilie best of liis ability.
It may be however, that we are attacking
symptoms rather than causes. We have, as I have said, begun to explore (lie nature and true cause of industrial accidents since it Is apparent that .legislation, regulations, and good intentions do not in themselves solve the dilemma of rising accidents. They do, however, provide us with a legal, and we hope precise, framvwoik to operate within. With our study, we hope tint only
to deiinc llic industrial accident and the role of the chief participants, but to be 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. I might say that we, as every prevention body is, arc working to wards the day when we can no longer be employed. We arc assured hy many economic planners that the advent of sophisticated
technology (automation, if you will), will relegate the industrial workers to pushing buttons and performing immUnting func tions for three hours a day.
Our chief aim at llic mnuunl is to keep winkers alive and kicking until that day arrives. However, 1 might note that since less than two per cent of our industry is fully automated, I feel no immediate need for a job re-training course.
Our department has continual exchanges of ideas, statistics and operation descrip tions with our other provinces and oilier 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 by in dividual research. We have, as well, been host and key participant at the recent Inter national Labour Orgaiii/atiou Manpower Cm icrem e, which discussed in some detail (lie international aspects of safety education ami preventive techniques.
Alt of us then--government, management, ami employees--share the rcs|>onsibi(ity for
industrial safety. As government becomes 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- 7 clianisms provided for their own protection, we ma)' yet find formulas that work belter than our current situntion-hy-situu(io ap proach. Frankly, 1 cannot give you omni scient answers, hut I know that if we, to gether, carefully select our questions and behave honestly and with proper concern in the area of our responsibilities, we will arrive at solutions that lessen and may eventually stop industrial accident and death.
DISCUSSION PERIOD -- W HAT'S BUGGING YO U ?
Delegates 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 safely sessions that they at tended during the Congress week. These written questions were reviewed and an swered by a panel of safely experts.

Moderator: Arc penalties violation of safely codes in the dictions actually sulhcieiit rent to the violation of codes?
Mr. Greene: l would say no; they arc not suHicicnt. The amount a company has to pay for a safely code violation is not enough to act as a deterrent- However, publicity is more of a deterrent than any fine that could he imposed. Of course, the only way to have adequate publicity is to iiijkisc a fine that is out of the ordinary.
We had a contractor that was fined $J(HI for a violation, which was the muxitimm fine that could he tm|K)Scd. Later, the con tractor indicated that the fine w as nothing compared to the adverse publicity (rum the newspajKirs, and (hat lie would have much rather paid a $J,000 fine than experience the publicity.
Moderator: In the province of Ontario, where the circumstances constitute an of fense against the Industrial Safety Act and this offense occurs consistently, every per son or employer who fails to comply with the provisions of the regulation, or (he di rections of an inspector, or the conditions of an approval permit is suhjcct to a tine of not more than $ 1,000 for each day of the violation or to imprisonment for not more Ilian 1 2 months for each day of in fraction.
Dr. Van /ltin: lu school I was taught that it is not the nature of the |>ciially hut tiie certainty that the |>cnally will he im posed that encourages compliance. Our main problem in this country is not the penalty hut the fact that most of the people who are violating regulations will not be penal ized regardless of what the taw says. This Is probably because we do not have enough inspectors to cover the areas.
Moderator: There are far too many acci{ dents involving high voltages which cause
burns, electrocutions, and falls from high places. These accidents occur to electricians, linemen, and other craftsmen above the age of 60 who do hazardous work. Few of these old timers wilt admit the weakening of their grip, failing eyesight, weak heart conditions, or a tendency to experience dizziness. I don't believe that a compulsory medical ex amination is the answer, hut there must he some solution. Perhaps workers over 60 should he prohibited from working in high

Moderator: D o you think th at unions and
mruiagciiuiit should work together in wiiimi; or changing a safely m le hook?
1966 National So, Congress
Mr. IVItileltousc: For years I have Feat preaching for joint lahor-mnnagcmcul safety committees to do this very thing. They should sit down and work out the procedures that arc to be followed so that it becomes the responsibility of both labor and man agement to see that they arc enforced.
In the past two years the I HEW anti various managements have established over 800 joint labor-management safely commit tees. I am very strongly in favor of these committees establishing ground rules. This is a definite advantage for management. We have had cases in some of our lucals where (lie 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. Dowling: We deal with the Ontario Federation of Labor and favor its support of joint labor-management methods of rule and regulation writing, but I would like tu add (fiat once (ficsc rules and regulations are 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 arc and lie under stands them clearly. Ill Canada, we print these rules and regulations ill French fur our French workers. The union also has an obligation to sec that these rules arc ex plained.
Moderator: A number of years ago Re public Steel Cor|ioratioii wanted to commu nicate to all of its employees a better un derstanding of the economic problems of the company and lirfw they affect the work ers. They went to Brookings Institute for advice, then developed a play with U char acters such as a farmer, business man, stock
bolder, 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 and respect.
The company paid thousands of dollars lor that idea, and it is believed that the same results can be obtained if the union is allowed to participate ill developing safely rules. An example of such cooperation is the Cui hm undoiii Company's joint safely work with the Oil, Chemical, and Atomic Workers Union. This relationship is work
ing extremely well and practically every one that l know of lias worked very successfully.
Moderator: Do you think safety programs
should lie in (lie labor contract?
Ur. Van Alta: Certainly! A contract has
to do with conditions of employment, and one of the major conditions of employment is your continued life. It seems to me that labor groups, in general, have been most remiss in that conditions of employment have not been included under safety. How ever, this is certainly no excuse for this to continue.
Mr. Greene: The contractors ill the Dis trict of Columbia must comply with the regulations of our department. One of the problems with safety by reference is that most of the workers, and some o f 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 iumicdialcly. 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. However, if people do not understand the regulations they do not know when the regulations arc violated. The answer, of course, is training. Without training, the regulations will be iiiiimplcmcuted.
Ur. Van Alta: I have read a significant amount of contracts which were signed by people who thought they had negotiated safety into the contract. The standard phrase is "the company will continue to provide safe and healthful places in which to work." This is really just saying that the company will continue its existing bad practices Tliat
is not negotiating safety. It is as worthless as
a contract that says tire company will con tinue to pay wages.
There is meaningful language which can be negotiated into union contracts and nearly all of the international unions can provide this type of language.
Mr. Ilurclt: If the union has already sat down with management and worked out acceptable safety rides, the contract can con tain meaningful language that is also simple
00051M "
S l'liUtH'
For example, "both sides agree lo ail it all times, to the saicly rules agreed jointly." This keeps unnecessary word of the contract and has the advantage that everybody knows what is being referred to. U also skirts the situation where the con tract is Tilled with language aimed at every body's particular grievance. The important thing is to get together and work out the rules and regulations by which you arc going to live and then Arm them up in a binding agreement so that everybody knows where they stand.
Actually the original i|ucstinii -- should safety be negotiated into a union contract? -- has been answered by the National I.alior Relations Board. Not too 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 rilling was that safely was a mandatory subject of col lective bargaining.
Moderator: To what extent is voltage over 5,000 volts being worked on out of aerial baskets or insulated platforms with rubber gloves and sleeves ?
Mr. W hitchouse: I wuuld like to highlight two tilings. One, safety standards for the electrical industry recommend that any volt age over 5,000 he cither de-energized, or grounded, nr worked by hot slick. Two, aerial baskets arc fundamentally a good tool because they place a mnii in a good jiosilioii. However, these baskets should not be con sidered as ail insulating or isolating device. Tlie same rules apply when working voltages Irom a basket as when working front a pole. There has been a concerted effort on the part of management of many utility com panies to go to 13,200 volts (and one wants to go up to 15,000 volts as a limit. A man can use rubber insulation for up to 20,000 volts; however, if his nose Is still exposed, tint is where he will make contact.
Edison Electric Institute made an analysis of accidents over the years and practically ill of the contacts over 5,000 volts arc not band contacts. So, the rubber gloves are not enough, and it's not reasonable to expect t man to work completely enclosed in robber. In the opinion of our organization, 5,000 volts is the limit for working energized lines except via but stick.
Moderator: A major Chicago cab com pany has vehicles which have the fresh air

In addition, the factory inspectors in the Province of Ontario carry a warrant with (licni ami, if they are opposed by the cmplnycr, the inspector uses the telephone to call the local magistrate. A policeman is dispatched to the plant to serve (lie warrant on the person obstructing tlic> inspection and has the person removed from the premises until the inspection is completed.
Moilcrator: Is there a standard clearing Inmsc that records a complete list of radia tion exposures to workers handling radio active materials?
Dr. Van Attn: Not in the United Slates, miforInnately. There was a hill introduced in the last Congress, hut 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 opiiosition to this bill from manage ment sources.
Moderator: How can we gel management to correct unsafe conditions promptly?
Mr. Dowling: f can only give you an il lustration of what happened in the city of Hamilton, Ontario. I was conduct mg semi nars in Hamilton when one of the crane operators in the plant called me at my home. He Informed me that the wheels oil the crane had heroine so worn that tile electric shoes that pick up the electricity hail dropped to where they were striking stud bolls, caus ing them to fall to the fltjir below. I called the shop foreman and be admitted dial llic condition was unsafe.
I then phoned the Director of (lie Ontario Industrial Safety lirancli and lie suit ait inspector within 35 miimlcs. The inspector was in the plant for It) minutes, tie shut down the entire plant. Management was then obligated to bring in a contractor to replace the crane wheels. The plant was shut down 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 semi an inspector to flic lucatimi. Usually the condition existed for some time before \ee receive the complaint. It lias bothered (lie worker, and he has probably complained
to various people hut lie doesn't contact us until the condition gets serious.
Mr. Cold: I think it must lie apparent that the answer to this (piestiou depends in a large measure on the geographic area in which the plant is located. Some states have line laws which will lake care of these filings if you push them. However, other states arc quite lax and backward.
Mr. Kumpcl: If you believe you arc work ing in a 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 the conditions need correcting.
Air. IIinch: f endorse ivliat John says, hut f would like to adil that union strength varies geographically. A lot will depend tqion the knowledge ami guts of the local business agents.
Moderator: What arc the effects of as bestos dust?
Dr. h\m A lla: B r e a th in g ex cessiv e amounts of asbestos dust over a period of 25 to 35 years, depending upon the amount and the person, will result in shortness of lircath, 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 ashestosis. But, in the last few years, we are discovering licit asbestos is a rather pmlilic producer of a variety of cancers of the lung and sur rounding tissues. Asbestos is a skinny little crystal, like a needle, ami 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, lint 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 2 0 years ago. I might say lliat excessive amounts of asbestos dust is only enough to constitute a slight hare ill 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 eases where they feel the plant hygienist or medical per sonnel arc not competent?

I Dr. Von A lto: There; arc scvci I <ju;diiied physicians in Hie country
act as consultants. Also, some s! (Icpaiiuieiits have personnel who can moiiitor asbestos operations and render opinions.
(Comment from the Door)--l)r. Van Alla, you mentioned yon can't get compensation for asbestos disabilities in most jurisdictions.
The law has changed in most jurisdic tions in the country duriug the last few years so that you may he aide to sue the construction company, the architects, and en gineers who built the plant without proper 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 heen disability but to prevent the continuation of the condition in the future.
' Moderator: VVliat services or aid should be given or offered to local unions from the safety staff of an international union?
Mr. Ilurch: The safety director should develop training programs, or at least out lines, for use by local union safety personnel. He should supply materials (posters, decals, technical data, etc.) and act ns a research consultant in safety ami health matters, lie | should answer i|iiestious received via letter ! or telephone. He should gather statistics, which requires the cooperation of local j unions.
The international union safety director i should represent Ins union members and i the trade union movement as a whole, on i the various committees that write standards | and codes which will elTeet the work of the ! union's members. The United States of I America Standards Institute, the Society of j Automotive Engineers, and the Society of
Mechanical Engineers arc examples of or ganizations that have these types of com mittees.
Previously, participation by union rep resentatives has heen minimal ami we arc doing our best to change this situation. This is one o f the most important activities that j safety personnel of international lalmr or ganizations can undertake. There are plenty of openings hut labor hasn't sought rep resentation. When labor docs become a part of these committees, it has been my ex perience that labor representatives arc wel come and oiler valuable contributions.
rrulf.y iio p o il.in t i It: j .-if* <h (*;I-
meut ami that is top tnaitngcmcn! s u p p o il I his is very important ; however, it is also essential that the man on the job suppoit the safely activities. T im many local unions still offer only lip set vice to accident pieveution. Until local iiiiiuit leadership pushes
accident prevention, the mail oil the job will emit line to be inicoiicerued.
Mr. WhitcUouse: I.et us not overlook the fact that many iiteiuatioii:il labor organiza tions do not have a safety director or safely department, bor them, the lirsl thing they can do is establish such a department and stall.
(Cniiijiient from the lloor, by Joseph I.couard)-- J'ht* l.ougslmiemeu's union installed accident prevention activities in the Interna tional Union office am) made it mandatory that each local should have a safety pro gram. Thai was four jta rs ago. To this day, I have to carry a bat when I visit the various locals in order to gel these fellows moving. I do not believe that the International Union ollicc can do much until Hie Ih'uI unions arc willing to accept 1 and support 1 . In addition, the rank and tile uiciuIhts must provide support to their local union olliccrs.
Mr. Kiwii'd: Our International Union has conducted many safely and compensation clinics throughout the United States ami Canada over the past 23 years. W e have fairly good success in attracting local union people to attend these clinics for tlnec or four days at a lime.
Moderator: Docs the District of Colimthia have the right In make it's own safety codes through it's appointed cntuuiissiotirrs, or aie the safety rules of Hie Disliict euui led by the Congress of the United States?
Mr. (rente: The District, thiough it's Minimum Wage and Industrial Safely Hoard, has the right to make safety codes.
They handle all of the investigations ami conduct the hearings necessary to develop these codes. I his privilege conies Iroiu Con gressional legislation.
Moderator: I low do we sell safety to our union members?
Mr. Cold: I believe that you must estab lish, within your members, a desire. You have to give them a ehaiuc to paiticipalc in the problems. I.et them assist with In >t aid training and coiimunuly action. The
966 National Safe,_ jngrcss
worker must understand how accident prcvcuhoii will hcnclit him, personally. Von cannot sell just once in a while. Ads lor new automobiles do not occur once in a while. They arc published continuously. The same cuiuiimmg sales pitch is necessary to keep a union safely program rolling. You hare to work at it.-
(Comment from Hob W ilkins)--I feel certain that the only way accident prevention can he 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 he done to avoid accidents or reduce hazards. O f course, this requires more time in preparing safety presentations and oftentimes costs money.
I am sure that all of you will agree that lake Gold docs an outstanding job of teach ing accident prevention to people first! 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, tile primary reason for this difficulty is the fact that management feels that the safely program is not only their responsibility, but that it is their privilege to develop and enforce it as they see fit.
These types of procedures often run into difficulty because most people resist some thing that is forced upon them. However, most people are 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.
A. an example, if management wants to liiiritc a saiciy-spivlnelc 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. When this cooperation is enjoyed from be ginning to end, the program will always lie a success because both parlies feel that the program was developed properly, and both parlies will cooperatively assist in see ing to it that the program is put into effect.
Regarding the question of what labor can
do about industrial hygiene problems, I be lieve that if Ibc slate labor department or other concerned organizalious cannot provide industrial hygiene personnel lo study situa tions believed to he hazardous by the union, then Ihc union should have the uppm(unity lo hire it's own consulting industrial hygien ist h> study the sitnadoii amt give ail un biased report. This should satisfy the de sires of the union membership and should assist iu avoiding hazardous situations which may lie overlooked by management.
(Comment from the Door liy 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, f have been interested iu 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 posilion is not aided by the existence of weak standards and weak liosilions by local and international unions.
Ill parlicnlar, I have during die past year presented eases of 37 workers who liavc lost hands in power presses. I have just S|>ent some time in the Power Press and Forging Section sessions, listening to speak ers on points of d|icralion guarding. It is my opinion that about 50,IKK) presses iu tlte United Slates arc guarded by a trap instead of a safely device. These are the pull-back guards. 1 think il is predictable that a work er who o)>cratcs a press equipped witli 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 that the National Safety Council is ever going to suggest that the pull-back devices are unsafe. This is prob ably because flic Power Press tuul Forgings Section basically represents industry and matiagemeiil. ilinvever, die uniniis can and should do som ething about ibis situation. They ought lo gel these devices banned in every state 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 Ihc machine is run ning.
General Motors, Ford, and Chrysler will not use these pull-back devices on any of their thousands of presses. They rccognirt ,
they arc a trap, tl is the smaller shops which do not have effective accident preven tion engineering in the plant, where these devices exist.
I recently talked to a corporate safety director who ( thought, should know better. However, his company is being advertised as having pull-baek type guards on power 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 because the local union insisted on the pull-back devices.
I believe that the local union safety per sonnel were undoubtedly good, conscientious safety people but were not safety sophisti cated. This point of operation guarding is a complex problem.
Dr. Kan AUa: What Mr. Philo says is perfectly true. Tail safe design is partic ularly important when you're talking about power presses. It is true that there is no failure of a pull-back device which is a
s a f e failure, I w c i y l oiiei vi ab le f. iilm c i-
a hazardous failure.
(Comment from the llooi ) --1 d i'ag itc with the idea of including industrial hygiene services in a union n>ntr;*t. t mo with the Slate l.ahor I b paiImeiit of lima and am director of the industiial inspectors. We have one of the finest industrial hygiene laboratories in the United Slates. What we really need is support from the muons at the slate level when it routes to budget time. The State Bureau if l.ahov doesn't receive the support from (tie unions'when it comes time for requesting monies to provide ade quate factory inspection and industrial hy giene survey work. The Manufacturers As sociation arc there mid they lobby against our budget continuously. Our Safety Com mission is currently operating on a budget of $16,000. We asked for $.19,000. The point is that the state has the facilities in adequate equipment and lahotaloiics. Hut we need more support from labor.

Important adjuncts to respiratory equip

Wlial arc we trying lo do with PLRT? We are trying to motivate our key people to program themselves and their men to \v.ik -airly and cliicicully.
'Hie rew ard for learning is coiilnlt nee. We must continue to learn and to tench and we must not forget our people if we are to prevent accidents.
We can siiiumurhe as follows:
1. We created an atmosphere of communi cations.
2. We accepted the philosophy of safely-- "Accidents Can lie Prevented".
3. We recognized and accepted our respon sibility in our organization.
4. We were motivated by accurately an swering the question, "What do 1 get out of safety?"
5. We created good p e rs o n a l re la tio n s n -.ugh personal contact.
0 We reviewed work limdamrnlals by ap plying the job hazard analysis system.
7. We improvai work methods work simplification techniques.
