Figures Showing, How Education
of Workmen Saves Big Loss
Presented to Manufacturers.
i TT To convince employers that safety
" methods and safety education, aside
from the ethical aspect, is a good busi
ness proposition, and to interest em
ployes ang the public itself evfen down
, to the homes nd to the school children,
fa putting: Portland on a safety basis,
. C ty. Price, general manasrer of the
.National Safety council, is in Portland.
Mr. ' Price xl:e betore t be employers
. of a number of Portland industrial firms j
at a dinner civen at the Benson Hatur-
; : day night. Me will sjwak Monday night
before the foremen, tellfnp them what
.
they can do to lessen accidelits in in
dustrial plants.
MAS LOSfO EXPKRIKNCK j
Mr, Price is forceful and onvmcinj.
. with a head full of .figures that he rat
tles off without hesitation. Kor 12 years
he was with the International Harvester
company, and then he oruanized safety
work'; for Ave years he was with the
industrial commission it Wisconsin, or
Kanlzlng that state on a new basis that
has since been copied by many other
states. 'Am field secretary, of the Na-
. tiondt Safety council, of which he was
formerly vice president, he has organ
ised loctt councils in g Industrial
centers. ' IIo hopes to , organize one in
Pftrtland.
--By the installation of '.safety ma
chinery and devices, three-fourths of the
Industrial accidents san be eliminated,
says Mr. Price.
STRIVE FOR SAFETY
Accident prevention ror the last 10
years has been the common ground on
which employers and employes can meet.
Ninety per cent of the7 accidents in
plants adhering strictly tv state regu
lations and .Insurance laws are due to
lack of education of the employes.
Safety methods yield not only ordi
nary, but extraordinary, dividends on
tho Investment. The campaign Is a
.business proposition.'.
These are the facts that Mr. Price is
Riving to employers. He related many
stories as proof of his argument. In a
United' States arsenal last July 4500 J
men were employed at extremely haz
ardous work. The number-increased to
8300. Such an abnormal situation al
ways Increases accideints, but results
of the safety campaign showed that in
April. 1919, "accidents had dropped 77
per cent under the number in July,
which had been 1 1-3 men out of every
100 men in a period of three days. The
education work among the employes is
handled by a safety engineer.
SAVIICO SHOWS
The United States Steel corporation,
the pioneer In the safety movement,
showed a saving of 23,196 lives or per
manently disabled men during the pefi
odJrora 1907 to 1918, in which safety
methods were practiced. Besides lives,
the . company saved $1,000,000 annually
which would have been spent on acci
dents. MBvery great railroad today has or
ganized a safety department," said Mr.
Price. "During the first five years they
reduced the number of passengers killed
In wrecks one half and train operators
47 per cent. During the last year there
were 325 railroads with 162,000 miles of
track, carrying 485.000,000 passengers,
Without an accident.' :
"Five things must be done. The gen-
era! manager must put safety on the
map and get hack of it so unmistakably
that v every foreman will be convinced,
and will do his part.
J"Tbe attitude of the -workman on safe
ty depends absolutely upon the foreman:
In every nlant there KhniiM ho a
men called 'safety inspector.' who has j
acquainted himself with methods of I
doing safety work in other plants and
who should devbte his: whole time to
looking after the safety.
"The bulletin board should be posted
each week with pictures bringing home
to the workmen the need of careful
ness. "Each plant should Organize an In
spection committee of the rank and file
of the workmen, which Is given abso
lute authority to make inspections on
the company's time and make recom
mendations. The only way to win the
confidence of the men is by giving them
an active part."
