SAFETY TRAINING INCREASES
EFFICIENCY OF employees
By A. B. c. HARDY

Employers are among the most &C.
tive and liberal supporters of the pub
lie safety movement. and this arises
from several causes. For one thing,
industrial executives are we'll trained
to think along safety lines in general.
They realize that a crippled work
man is a loss from several points of
view and that any accident, from min
or to fatal, means adjustment of oper-
alton, compensation and loss generally.
They realize that accidents in the
plant are economically wasteful, and
they frequently exceed the require
mcnts Of the state authorities in safe
guarding their employees from injury
or death.
While industrial safety is compli-
Gated by the human element, as are
all problems dealing with human ma
ture, there are certain features that
have made 1t possible to advance very

far toward the goal of 100 per cent
safety in the plant. For one thing,
mechanic normally does the same
thing over and over, and does it at
one time exactly like another. Barring
accident or breakdown, the machines
functions are identical, day in and day
out. Operatives can be trained to WORK
in harmony with the normally func-
tioning machines, and while they do
the work Of the plant goes ahead,
without accident. The safety depart
ments in our plants have been brought
to a high pitch Of efficiency, and def
mite records are available, showing
how safety education in the plant has
cut down. and in many cases eliminat-
cd entirely, over long periods, injury
and death to employees.
Employers know the value of
trained employes-and there Nare few
