The Safety Bit
Health & safety for new starters and contractors
 
When a new employee joins a company - or a new contractor starts a job - you've got a great opportunity to start them off with the right attitude towards safety.
 
This inspired us to produce The Safety Bit, a fresh, modern approach to health and safety induction training designed to get new people up to speed as quickly as possible.
 
This film will help your audience to:

• Understand the importance of safety
• Accept that they have a critical role to play in your organisation's safety
• Reinforce the message that safety comes down to safe behaviours
• Encourage open communication about safety issues
• Improve the overall safey record of your company

Lift Trucks Don't Have Accidents
 
For the most part lift truck accidents aren't caused by the lift trucks themselves. They are caused by people and our behaviours. What we do or don't do when working with or around lift trucks.
 
Using real-life security camera footage and interviews with lift truck operators this programme presents a powerful reminder of the potential dangers of working in lift truck areas.
 
The core of the film asks people working with lift trucks to identify and act upon both unsafe acts and conditions. By replacing these unsafe acts with key positive safe behaviours we can all adopt as part of our daily routine when working with lift trucks it is possible to dramatically reduce the odds of such incidents occurring.

Reaction into Action
Accident investigation in the workplace
 
Reaction into Action is an innovative two-part accident investigation video training programme.
 
It shows how accident and incident investigation is about acting fast and effectively when something goes wrong so that you can turn mistakes into positive action.
 
Aimed at managers, supervisors and team leaders Reaction into Action is split into two parts. Part one considers the legal, moral and economic responsibilities and how accident investigation represents a great opportunity for any organisation to learn how to improve their safety performance. While part two uses an on screen incident and the subsequent investigation to demonstrate the basic principles of good investigation.

This personal story, told by accident victim Ken Woodward, highlights the very real potential for incidents to occur even in some of the safest environments. The powerful story of Ken's accident, (including the vivid memories of physical and mental pain), and statistical information in the programme make it an ideal motivational tool with tremendous impact. Customers are always telling us how versatile this video is.

Positive Moves
Preventing slips, trips and falls at work
 
Slips, trips and falls cost industry over £300 million per year in lost production. And they are still happening even in the safest organisations despite their best efforts to reduce the problems through focusing on the work environment.
 
This inspired us to make Positive Moves. It approaches the problem of slips, trips and falls from a human perspective focusing on the positive behaviours we all can adopt as part of our every day routine to improve our safety while moving around the workplace. As you will see, the film includes three people with vivid memories of how their own lives were greatly affected by a slip, trip or fall.
 
The core of the film asks people to use their hands, feet, eyes and head to stay safe by identifying and acting on both unsafe acts and conditions. By replacing these unsafe acts with positive safe behaviours it is possible to dramatically reduce the odds of such incidents occurring.

The Last Line of Defence
Wearing personal protective equipment
 
Most workers will tell you how important Personal Protective Equipment is. We all understand how the right PPE can protect life and limb. But there's a big difference between understanding something and actually doing it correctly, day in, day out.
 
The fact is that thousands of people are still injured every year because they weren't wearing the correct PPE, or weren't wearing it properly. Clearly there's a gap between PPE awareness and action.
 
This film is designed to close this gap: to drive home the critical importance of PPE and to deepen every worker's appreciation of their responsibility to contribute to an effective PPE policy.
 
Not just another list of reasons why your trainees should wear their PPE, The Last Line of Defence identifies the obstacles to wearing it and the warning signs of when a PPE problem may occur. Only by understanding the reasons we sometimes don't wear PPE (even when we know it makes sense) can we increase the probability of wearing it.
