If i have learned about reading about accidents is that not safety interlock is enough, there is always a flaw or someone in a hurry or lazy that finds a way to circumvent them and ends up injured or killed. A very big part of accident mitigation is working with the workers about safety culture and also the working environment. So many times accidents have happened because workers get too pressured or because someone wants to save money.
I did a stupid thing about 15 years ago at a woodworking shop in school… I walked up to a disk sander that was turned off but still spinning, didn’t have an apron on and before I knew it my tie had gotten pulled in by the disk… everything came to a stop because it had run out of momentum but it could have easily snapped my neck if it had been at full power. 😬
@@worksafebc oh I do. I just find myself having to watch the American CSB findings because Canada is behind on everything compared to USA which is evident in Ontario where it’s all bad
@@worksafebc it’s always a pleasure to see a new video, I find WorkSafeBC to be the best of any provincial program of its kind. Thank you for keeping Canadians safe - from an Ontarian
And when that new system fails and there's another accident, then they will design, build and install another type of lock-out-tagout that will be the end of all accidents, well until the next!!

My woodworking teacher would've flipped out if he saw me wearing a tie inn class. His first rule of shop class was no loose clothes or hair.
Glad you’re okay
Glad it ended that way and you're here today.
Yup your an idiot so many mistakewhf were you doing with a tie in that environment what were you doing so close to the sander you lucky to be alive
Were you the teacher?
That has to be the cleanest mill in the country.
yep just like every place that knows a inspctor is coming
Nah. Houston is pretty amazing.
i just like blueberries so the whole process is kind of different from growing blueberries but i wouldn’t say it’s far off
Perfect example of utilizing the first step in hazard mitigation.
wow, huge factory. would love to visit once in my lifetime
As a manager I don’t want to see anyone hurt. Makes a lot of sense, as you will be the first one to blame.
Finally a video. I enjoy, but was not able to see new content

@@bxnkroll Thank you for your kind words about our health and safety videos.
@@worksafebc my pleasure. I wish I could move to BC. Stay safe workers, and thank you for the nice reply
I loved the cinematography in this video! The superimposed 3d titles were especially nice.
Sawmills are hands down the scariest industrial environments to me.
Amazing woodmachine..👍
Probably reduced insurance costs too
All that and they never explained how the worker had an accident??? Geez…
hoping one day he finds his arm, that is a huge place to lose anything
And when that new system fails and there's another accident, then they will design, build and install another type of lock-out-tagout that will be the end of all accidents, well until the next!!
Don’t think ties are a good idea in a woodworking shop , think we had to take off rings and neck chains at our class.
I like Chelsea
She stole the clip haha !
