I was of course, referring to companies wlio employ a relatively few people as (ransjiort drivers, and not the great trucking industry. The monumental efforts in safety training anil controlling highway drivers made by the trucking industry is living proof of what can be achieved in the field of driver train ing. The average highway transport driver of today is well-worthy of his title, "gentle man of the 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 a driver training program tailored exactly to the needs of all organizations, both large or small. However, it is possible to establish basic concepts covering the "Who? -- What? -- How? -- Why?" of driver training that would be applicable to large or small organizations. This can perhaps be best defined in some written terms of reference that clearly out lines these facts and may lake the form of a policy letter, or other written procedure. The formal promulgation of a policy such as this has the advantage of clearly inform ing till concerned what has to be done and ensures the 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 safety permit to the employee. A safety 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 the employee. 3. It forms the base of your driver train ing records. 31 OFFICERS OF THE . 000585 '1.

I am particularly pleased that the ladies who make up the membership of the American Association of Industrial Nurses are also co-sponsors this morning. In our company, the groups who are con cerned with the health of workers both di rectly and indirectly enjoy a cordial and co operative relationship with each other. This has 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.

After some two hours of work, he began to feel bad and the next day ex perienced some tightness of the chest, was coughing, and felt that lie had been exposed to too much welding fume.

Very possibly, the reason for this the dusts that produce the pneumoconioses. IS cases may have occurred but, being sporadic, they have not been recognized nor published. In the major industries involving exposure to silica dust, there tends to be a good knowl edge of the fact that too much of these dusts 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 (he next day's work, it is vital that not only the health and safety personnel hut also the foreman in charge of the operation should he well informed concerning the hazards from cadmium oxide fume. will cause a lung condition, which may be disabling. Where the dust may contain crys talline free silica, such as is the 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 the dust the lower the dust coin cutratiou should lie in order to avoid the development of silicosis.

"Fahr Slid soapstone powders arc used in As further categories of knowledge con cerning hazardous materials, we should inchide 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- such industries as rubber goods manufactur- j ing, and may introduce appreciable amounts of such dusts into the air. Whereas most dusts made up of silicates arc escsntially ! inert and, as such, as much as 50 million i particles per cubic foot of air may be con- * sidcred acceptable, these two minerals have been found to produce disabling pneumocon iosis in lesser concentrations with the result that no more than 20 million particles per cubic foot of air is considered within safe limits. ; 132 This, however, is t _ l$iwfl&le: Sltwy felt that much of the b.i/- connection with talc ? iii- ard\ .YgfficriMMfcd when inuitufacttirvrs or frequently, these agreed to omit beryllium in to have some quartz content; this may be their phosphors in June 1919.

It would seem that everybody is well in Somewhat the same situation occurs in connection with a dusty material made tip of diatomacemis earth, a form of amorphous silica. The natural material has been found to cause a disabling silicosis when the ex posure exceeds 20 million particles per cubic foot. However, where the diatoinaccous 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 diatomaccous earth is calcined with or without a formed concerning carbon monoxide, the gas which is responsible for more exposures than any other, and also the gas responsible for the greatest number of eases of fatal asphyxiation. In areas whore there is an active possibility of escape of gases contain ing carbon monoxide, there lends to he an increasing use of multipoint carbon mon oxide alarms. Such installations have been placed in a number of blast furnace plants where carbon monoxide concent rat ions of the gas are in the order of 26 or 27 per cent. flux, the percentage of the cristobalite may be in the order of 20 per cent or 30 per cent, the latter with the flux calcining. Ap Fortunately, for most fuel gas purposes natural gas is coming into increasing use and this, of course, contains no carbon monoxide. plying the ACGIH formula, these calcined diatoinaccous earths should he kept either to 10 million particles tier cubic foot or to seven million, in order to avoid lung injury. Furthermore, where in earlier years supple mentary gas supplies have hern provided through water-gas or prodm-er-gas installa tions, these are today being replaced by In the category of metals, we would ex pect that all health and safety personnel arc familiar with lead as an occupational hazard and that proper precautions arc taken to I prevent excessive exposure. In spite of this general knowledge, lead poisoning cases con tinue to occur in industry, not only in the industries that have produced tiie greatest number of eases over past years. A fter a report in tbe literature that lead poisoning eases were occurring in plastic manufacturing in Italy and a subsequent report of such cases in this industry in France, a group of lead poisoning eases 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 ex|x)surc might have been brought under control without occurrence of eases. Beryllium is well known as a producer of serious and fatal occupational disease liquified petroleum gas with no carbon mon oxide content. It is, of course, inqiortaiit always to keep in mind that imperfect com bustion of natural gas or LI'G will produce a sufficient amount of caihnn monoxide to cause asphyxiation. Cases of carbon mon oxide asphyxiation have occurred over the years on Monday mornings where cold sys tems arc being healed with naftirnl gas. 11ere, the impingement of the lumiing gas on cold surfaces interferes with complete combustion witli markedly greater amounts of carbon monoxide in the products of coinhu-diou. Among the gases which might well he listed with those which may cause sudden death is hydrogen sulfide. The worst case of liberation of hydrogen sulfide in an oc cupied area occurred in 1'oza Kiea. Mexico, where liberation of hydrogen sulfide at a gas and oil field caused 22 deaths and several hundred cases of sufficient severitv to re quire hospitalization.

We have, as 1 have said, begun to explore the nature and true cause of industrial accidents sinee it is apparent that .legislation, reputations, and pood intentions do not in themselves solve the dilemma of rising accidents. They do, however, provide us with a legal, and v r hope preeise, framework to operate within. With our study, we hope not only to deliiic 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, hut in anticipation of the developments of the new industrial climate. I might say that we, as every prevention body is, are working to wards the day when we can no longer be employed. Wc arc assured by many economic planners that the advent of sophisticated technology (automation, iT 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 arrives. However, l might note that since Ic-s Ilian two per cent of our industry is fully automated, I feci 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 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 by in dividual research. Wc have, as well, been host ami key participant at the recent Jnlcrnallona) Labour Organization Manpower Conference, which discussed in some detail the international .aspects of safely education and preventive teclmhpies. All of us then--government, management, and employees--share the responsibility for industrial safely. 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 chanisms provided for their own protection, wc may vet find formulas that work belter than our current sltuation-by-situalion ap proach. Frankly, I cannot give you omni scient answers, but 1 know that if we, to gether, carefully select our questions and behave honestly and with proper concern in the area of ottr responsibilities, wc will arrive at solutions tb.it lessen and may eventually stop industrial accident and death. DISCUSSION PERIOD -- W HAT'S BUGGING YOU? IJelcgatcs 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. These written questions were reviewed and an swered hv a panel of safely experts. Presiding Officer: John R. Kmnpel, Safety and Compensation Representative, United Rubber Workers, Akron, Ohio. Mmlrnilor: Jacob Cold, Safely Engineer, Bureau of Labor Standards, U.S. I tepartmenl of Labor, Washington, I). C. AS Pmicl Members: Alan F. Burch, Director of Safety, International Union of 0|>crating Engineers, Washington, D. C.; John L.

C. 0 0 (){;!: Moderator: Arc pctitillies violation of sifvty codes in flic dictions actually snllicien! to ad rent to the violation of curies? deter - Mr. Greene: 1 would say no; they are not sullicicnt. The amount a company has to pay for a safety 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 impose a line that is out of the ordinary. We had a contractor that was lined $.100 for a violation, which was the maximum fine that could he imposed. Later, the con tractor indicated that the tine was nothing compared to the adverse publicity front the ncwspa|>crs, and that lie would have much rather paid a $.1,000 line 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 the di rections of an inspector, or the conditions of an approval permit is subject to a line of not more than $1,00(1 for each day of the violation or to imprisonment for not more than 12 months for each day of in fraction. Dr. Van /Ilia: In school I was taught that it is not the nature of the |tcually hut the certainty that the penally will be im posed that encourages compliance. Our main problem in Ibis country is not lltc penalty but the fact that most of the people who are violating regulations will not be penal ized regardless of what the law says. This is probably because we do not have enough inspectors to cover the areas. Moderator: There arc 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. Lew of these old timers will 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 jjpyrv. tin dial!. M r.

Mr. tturch: I am opposed to pre-employ ment physical examinations as a condition of employment, hut 1 am not against physical examinations. T think the point in this cpiestion is an important one ami that is that we must he our brother's keeper. M-i-t unions have negotiated health and welfare plans, ami these should include at Ira I an nua! physical examinations. Of course, there is nothing stopping an individual from seek \\v* his own personal doctor periodically; in tact lie will probably diruss hi-: job umic freely ami the I\pt* ol work that he per forms with ilis dnelor. After the personal doctor advises the individual about his physi cal ability in relation t< performing his joh, it is tip to the worker to decide whether he will continue or not.

Mr. Creme: fn this case, then' U a t|iiesIion of one person brini; a hazard to other persons on the joh.

In :mo|liri instance, a chronic drunk was dim ity ic- spousible for the severe injury of three other persons. J'olh management and labor knew of this man's illness, hut neither related it to his responsible jnh.

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 IBEW and various managements have established over S00 joint labor-management safety commit tees. 1 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 locals where the union member was brought before the executive board and informed that the union agreed to these rules and regulations and lie, 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 to add that once these 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 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 obligation to sec (hat these rules are ex plained. Moderator: A number of years ago Re public Steel Corporation wanted to commu nicate to all of its employees a better un derstanding of the economic problems of the company and InJw 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 and 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 Union. This relationship is work- mg extremely well and practically every one that I know of has worked very successfully. Moderator: Do you think safety programs should be in the labor contract? Dr. 'an A t ta: 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 in 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 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. 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 unimplcmcntcd. Dr. 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. That is not negotiating safety. It is as worthless as a contract that says the 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. Burch: 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. 10 0 0 0 5 9 -1 Sc For example, "both sides agree to at' ^ e'-SOFpihcctl tiiAt "the exhaust fumes of at all times, to the safety rules agreed immediately. ahc.;uj. are., taken into jointly."

The important not do anything about this sort of condition thing is to get together and work out the except publicize the hazard.

These steps can be taken by the union and should be. gloves and sleeves? (Comment from the flour, by Joseph I.. Mr. IVhitcUnusc: I would like to highlight two things. One, safely standards for the electrical industry recommend that any volt age over 5,000 be cither de-cnergizcd, or grounded, or worked by hot stick. Two, aerial baskets are fundamentally a good tool Algina, Safety Director, Seafarers Inter national Union)--The local union that is involved with this cab company is meeting tonight and I will he present. 1 will recom mend that this union lake diieel action to see that the condition is eliminated. because they place a man in a good position. Moderator: Ihnv are safely and health However, these baskets should not be con sidered as an insulating or isolating device. The same rules apply when working voltages from a basket as when working from 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, that is where lie 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 problems handled under Canadian laws? Mr. Deleting: Wo have an arrangement with the Director and Chief Inspector, In dustrial Safety Branch, Ontario Department of Labour, Toronto, whereby I meet in his 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 repm t is sent to my office. I forward it to the In dustrial Safety Branch and an inspector is hand contacts. So, the rubber gloves are not enough, and it's not reasonable to expect 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 stick. Moderator: A major Chicago cab com pany has vehicles which have the fresh air sent to the plant to cheek into the condition. Subsequently, we get a report from the Di rector of the Industrial Safety' 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 for foundries dl J9o6 National Safely Congress must roniact llie local union nliieials before lie visits a plant and must lake the local's appointed representative willi him during his tour of the plant. fit addition, the factory inspectors in the J'rnvincc of Ontario carry a warrant with them and, it they are opposed l>y the cmpbuer, the inspector uses the telephone to call the local magistrate. A policeman is dispatched to the plant to serve the warrant on tin: person obstructing the inspection and has (he person removed from the premises until (lie inspection is completed. Moderator: Is there a standard clearing bouse that records a complete list of radia tion exposures to workers handling radio active materials? Or. Van /I lln: Not in the United States, unfortunately. There was a bill introduced in the last Congress, but Congress did not act on it. W'c have high hopes that it will he handled during the next Congress, al though we understand that there is consid erable; opposition to this bill from manage ment sources. Moderator: Ifow can we gel management to collect unsafe conditions promptly? Mr. Dosvlmg: I can only give you an il lustration of what happened in the city of Hamilton, Ontario. I was conducting semi nars in Hamilton when one of the crane operators in the plant called me at my home, lie informed me that the wheels on the crane had become so worn that the electric shoes that pick tip the electricity had dropped to where they were striking stud bolts, caus ing them to fall to the floTtr below. I called the shop foreman and lie admitted that the condition was unsafe. I then phoned the Director of the Ontario Industrial Safety Branch mid he sent an inspector within 35 minutes. The inspector was in tlic plant for 10 minutes, lie 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. .1Jr. Create: We have a way of getting things done also; however, it is sometimes rallicr late. When we receive a complaint we send an inspector to the local ion. Usually the condition existed for some time before we receive Hie complaint. It lias bothered the worker, and he has probably complained 12 to various people hut he doesn't contact us unlil the condition gets serious. Mr. Cold: I think it must be apparent that the answer to this cpiestion depends in a large measure on the geographic area in which the plant is located. Some stales have line laws which will lake care of these things if you push them. However, other states arc ipiitc lax and backward. Mr. Kumfcl: 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 he examined by proper and (ptalificd authorities to determine if the conditions need correcting. Mr. Burch: I endorse what John says, but I would like to add that union strength varies geographically. A lot will depend upon the knowledge and guts of the local business agents. Moderator: What arc the effects of as bestos dust? Dr. Van Atla: B re a th in g excessive amounts of asbestos dust over a period of 25 to .35 years, depending upon the amount and the 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 rallicr 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, hut now it is be ginning to lie 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 lust is only enough to constitute a slight haze in the air. The situations in which asbestos is used are highly deserving of competent professional assessment. Moderator: How can unions get such professional assessment in rases where they feel tlic plant hygienist or medical per sonnel are not competent? 0 0 0 r; t : c Labor .Sc::s!t'ii\ Dr. I'(in Alla: There arc sever i|ii:ililietl physicians in the country act as consultants. Also, some si departments have personnel who can mnnilor asbestos o|icrations and render opinions. (Comment from the lloor) --Dr. Van Alla, yon mentioned you can't pet 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 the plant without proper ventilation. This can be 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 has 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 safety staff of an international union? Mr. Ilurch: The safely 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 as a research consultant in safety and health matters, lie should answer <|m:slions received via letter or telephone. He should gather statistics, which requires the cooperation of local unions. The international union safety director should represent his union members and 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 States of America Standards Institute, the Society of Automotive Engineers, and the Society of Mechanical Engineers are examples of or ganizations that have these types of com mittees. Previously, participation by union rep resentatives has been minimal and we are doing our best to change this situation. This is one of the most important activities that safety personnel of international labor or ganizations can undertake. There are plenty of openings but labor hasn't sought rep resentation. When labor does become a part of these committees, it has been my ex perience that labor representatives arc wel come and offer valuable contributions.

Vim cannot sell just once in a while. Ads for new ;iulnni(biles do uni occur once in a while. They lire published conlimiously. The same continuing soles pilch is necessary (o keep a union safely program rolling. You have to work at it.- (Comment from Bob Wilkins)--I feel certain thru the only way accident prevention ran he effectively sold to union members and their families is through effective de monstrations. Demonstrative presentations stick in a persons mind much longer and are more effective in changing habits and atti tudes. Hints are one method of demonstrat ing what can he done to avoid accidents or reduce hazards. Of course, this rccpiires more time in preparing safety presentations and oftentimes costs money. I am sure that all of you will agree that lake ('.old does an outstanding job of teach ing accident prevention to people from all walks of life and you will notice that be 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 vent ion program, the primary reason for this <1ittiiii11y is the fact that management feels that the safely program is not only their respnnsihilily, hut that it is their privilege to develop and enforce it as they see fit. These types of procedures often run into diilictilly 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. As an example, if management wants to iniiintc a safety-spectacle program, it is extremely helpful if they will ask the union lo 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 be a success because both parties feel that the program was developed properly, and both parlies will cooperatively assist in see ing to it that the program is pul into effect. Regarding tine question of what labor can do about industrial hygiene problrms, 1 be lieve that if Ihe state labor department or other concerned organizations cannot provide industrial hygiene personnel to study situa tions believed to he hazardous by the union, then the union should have the opportunity lo litre it's own consulting industrial hygien ist to study tlie situation and give an un biased report. This should satisfy the de sires of the union membership and should assist in avoiding hazardous situations which may be overlooked by management. (Comment from the floor by Mr. I'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 safely equipment that result in an injury lo 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 Bower Press and Forging Section sessions, listening to speak ers on points of operation guarding. It is my opinion that about 50,000 presses in the United Slates arc guarded by a trap instead of a safely 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. 1 represent some clients who have lost both hands. f don't believe that the National Safety Council is ever going to suggest that the pull-back devices arc unsafe. This is prob ably because the Fewer 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 state in the country. The pull-back devices violate the two principles of power press safety. 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 rccogniie /.<:ker ScsMi^ls they ;irc :i trip. Il is tlie smaller simps wliicli do not have effective accident preven tion engineering in (lie plant, where these devices exist. I recently talked to a corporate safety director who I thought, should know (letter. However, his company is being advertised as having pull-bark 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 sonic 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. Van Attn: What Mr. Philo says is perfectly true. I'ail 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 safe failure. Kvrt y enurrive.uMr iailnie i . a hazardous failure. (Comment from the lloor)--I disagree with the idea of including industrial hygiene services in a union cmilrail. I am with the Stale l.ahor Department "1 Iowa and am director of the industrial inspectors. We have one of the finest industrial hygiene laboratories in the United Slates. What we really need is support from the unions at the slate level when it comes to budget time. The Slate llureati of kabor doesn't receive the support from the unions when il comes time for leipiesting monies to provide ade quate factory inspection am! industrial hy giene survey work. The Manufacturers As sociation arc there and they lobby against our budget continuously. Our Safety Com mission is currently operating on a budget of $16,000. We asked for $30,000. The point is that the state has the facilities in adequate equipment and laboratories. Hut we lived more support from labor. OFFICERS OF THE LABOR CONFERENCE NATIONAL SAFETY COUNCIL 1966-67 Vice President fo r Labor-- H unter P. W harton, General President, Internationa!

We are trying to motivate our key people to program themselves and their men to work safely and efficiently. The reward for learning is confidence. We must continue to learn and to teach and we must not forget our people if we are to prevent accidents. We can summarize as follows: 1. We created an atmosphere of communi cations. 2. We accepted the philosophy of safety-- "Accidents Can Be Prevented''. W'e recognized an d accepted o u r respon sibility in o u r organization. I. We were motivated by accurately an swering the question, "What do I get out of safety?" = . We created good p erso n al re la tio n s ti '..ugh personal contact. . We reviewed work fundamentals by apniyinq the job hazard analysis system. 7. We improved work methods through work simplification techniques. 8. We provided a method of programming ourselves and our resources, for safe and efficient work through PERT. Phis program has provided us with a persona! discipline. It has given us the con fidence and ability to successfully meet tbc challenge of the future. We are learning how to work safely by applying modern management techniques to. ou.r w.vourikk pJirroubulieumiis. Wvve kKnnoow thnese tools cazas t be eiTective when applied to specific problems and presented at the proper level of com- f prehension of the particular people involv< f because the Dallas Division mainntteennaannccee f people worked 584 days without a disabling , injury, with no disabling injuries in 1965. We have had one disabling injury hi the Bridge and Building Department this year. We can successfully meet the challenge of the future by continually learning ar-i leaching and finding ways to apply modem management tools. Research and Contest Committee-D. D.
