The late Rose Farrens was steadfastly dedicated to the proposition that there is difference between safety and accident prevention. Safety is viewed as passive entity. Safely, being the absence of an accident, may be nothing more than sheer luck. Accident prevention is safety by design. Accident prevention is conscious recognition and effort to regulate hazards in the workplace that might lead to or cause an accident . If you have no accident prevention program, then a work period that records no injuries is a work period of luck, pure and simple. Instead of a billboard that states the number of days worked without an accident, there should a billboard that states the number of lucky days worked so far.
