Take Time To Live
ON PREVIEW TAPE 991537 ZZ "Hasty Horace" is featured as the typical in-a-hurry individual who rushes through breakfast, to the bus stop, to the job, and who repeats the sequence at quitting time. All the wear and tear could be avoided through revising the time schedule to get up earlier, etc. Film points out that 9 of every 10 accidents which occur in the home and on the street are due to hurrying. The film contains good footage of 1950s parking lots and has a scene where Horace clears the steps at his home of a tricycle and toys--a sequence which appears in several films of this era. While addressing the matter of taking your time to live, Horace is shown lighting a cigarette--which is not recognized as a health hazard in films of this era. Good and humorous fast-motion scene of Horace going to work. (great shot at end with man in bathroom looking at himself in mirror, making funny and weird faces, just hysterical, just great! Also shot of him reading to his daughter.) funny, wacky, humorous, goofy, accidents, domestic. -note: lots of this footage could be used as 50s homelife, work, street shots etc...)
So You're New Around Here
PREVIEW CASSETTE # 202088 On his first day at work, Mike is shown around the plant by his foreman who points out how past accidents have been used as the basis for establishing safety rules and an effective safety program. He alludes to a series of Safety Posters which are followed by still reenactments of accidents from lifting, falls, hand tools, etc. The black-and-white clips of 1950s-era factory scenes are of possible value in the future. The film is typical of the staged and contrived productions of the era.
If You Took Your Family To Work
Jerry's son "Butch" wants to go to work with him one morning but is told that he can't because he might get hurt. This thought stays with Jerry all day at the construction site and results in his observing safe work practices that otherwise, he would not have bothered with. This is a very contrived film that is typical of safety films of the era. One of the most notable featues is wholly unintended: Jerry's smoking cigarettes in virtually every scene. His concern for safe work practices totally overlooks the bad example he is giving to his son by the chain-smoking sequences.
Let Them Know
One of 1963 Safety Management Series in which safety engineer John previews upcoming supervisor's safety meeting on Training for Safety with shop foreman Larry. John has arranged for drill press to be located in training room and has Larry simulate instructing a new man. Together they come up with the acceptable format: 1) Lay the ground work. 2) Get the trainee prepared (at ease). 3) Show what is to be done and how to do it. 4) Test and check, test and check.
A New Way To Lift
PREVIEW CASSETTE # 313634 Based on many years research on lifting techniques and analytical review of injuries resulting from lifting, B.T. Davis, PhD., developed a new lifting technique of six elements involving parts of the body which combine to proviede the Perfect Lift Position (positions of feet, back, chin, palms, body or weight distribution and arms). These elemts and te resulting perfect lift are demonstrated on a variety of dissimilarly shaped objects. Produced with the assistance of Bemjamin T. Davies, PhD, University of Birmingham, England, and the University of Massachusetts.
For Safety's Sake
ON PREVIEW CASSETTE 97559 I and 42992 tape 2 01:00:00 This World War Two-era film takes place in Your Town, USA, and begins with a somewhat bombastic statement to the effect that the 50,000,000 workers in this country work for only one purpose and that is "more production". The film shows Joe Workers near electrocution with an ungrounded drill and subsequently proceeds to Safety Director Charles Adams' high-rise office where a lecture on power tools ensues--concluding with the 10 Commandments thereof. The film has considerable historical appeal and potential. The Safety director in this oldie is a typical Hollywood type of the era, who is elegantly attired and officed. Atypically, he offers the two new employees a cigarette during their orientation, which he lights for each, and then launches into an improbable lecture on power drill safety. This is followed by an equally unbelievable soliloquy on Plant Safety by Joe Worker. Film is quite illustrative of propagandized approach to safety.

Foresight Not Hindsight
Film takes place in realistic factory surroundings and centers around how supervisor Jimmy comes to the realization that it's much better to recognize accident situations before they happen than after. Good but dingy footage of hazards associated with ladders, dockplates, skids, pallets, and unguarded machinery.
Decide To Be Safe
This film is number 5 in the NSC series Personal Side of Safety, which is directed at the personal aspects of safety and utilizes charicatures throughout (with the exception of the beginning and end footage.) Points out that this is not a single shot for accidents as for a particular disease and that safety is primarily a personal thing because: 1) We're all individuals, 2) our jobs are individual, and 3) the people we work with are individuals. Film is almost entirely a series of cartoons.
It's Up To You
It's Up To You - Eye protection. Safety in the workplace. Shop worker suffers damage to eye. Lectures about protecting eyes. Safety goggles, etc. This medically explicit film on eye protection takes the viewer along to surgery with Eddie Briggs, a worker who has failed to wear eye protection and who has a piece of metal embedded in his eye as a result. The surgery which is performed is quite graphic. This film is perhaps one of the few safety films that could truly be classified as unforgettable and doubtless was produced to get the attention of workers who are skeptical about the need for safety eyewear. The close-in footage of eye surgery might one day have historical value regarding state-of-the-art eye surgery techniques during the mid-20th century.
Putting It All Together
How to effectively instruct for safety is illustrated by father--who'd just completed JIT-JSA training course--in his discussion and instruction of daughter in handling a blow-out and changing a tire. Basic precepts of JIT are followed: 1) Prepare the worker. 2) Present the operation. 3) Try out performance. and 4) Follow up. How to instruct. First Aid. Features an extremely young SHELLEY LONG as the daughter! (celebrity, before they were famous)
