When employees are willing to speak to co-workers about unsafe acts, injuries can be prevented. This video dramatically tells the story of an employee who failed to speak up when witnessing an unsafe act. By choosing to 'look the other way,' he allowed the needless death of a co-worker to occur. Based on the popular safety poem by Don Merrell, this program shows how speaking up about unsafe acts can save lives and help develop a positive safety culture. Verses from the poem are meshed with the video's action to deliver a stimulating safety message. Viewers will be motivated to speak up when they see a co-worker putting himself in an unsafe situation, even if they feel that person's response may be negative.
