This year
over 125,000 people
of all ages will die in accidents in the U.S.
Over
35,000,000 (about 1-in-8) of us will
suffer injuries that require medical attention.
Some of these injuries are life-altering.
These statistics show that accidents
can happen to anyone.
Your attention to off-the-job safety will help you
and your family avoid being included in future statistics.
Our books provide a comprehensive and
convenient
source
of
safety tips to help
you and your family avoid these accidents.
The key to preventing accidents
is the use of a Personal
Safety Plan.
With either of our books, you can
quickly access tips
to develop
Personal Safety Plans for each family member.
“Cartoon-style
illustrations add a touch of light humor to this very serious
and practical guide to minimizing the odds of dangerous or fatal
accidents… a well-rounded, erudite, and first-rate primer warning
of obvious and subtle daily hazards. Highly recommended; careful
perusal of the pages could potentially save lives.”

As the following examples show, the good news is
that
a planned approach to safety makes you and your family safer.
The DuPont company has a comprehensive off-the-job
safety program. Its employees and their families have far fewer off-the-job accidents
than the national average.
A program by the U.S. Navy emphasizing off-duty recreational safety has
reduced fatalities by about 50 percent.
Nearly 70 percent of boating fatalities involve an operator who didn't
take a boating safety class. Boating fatalities are down over 50% in
the last 30 years due to an emphasis on safety.
Additional studies by the National Safety Council prove that off-the-job
safety efforts reduce accidents.
Also, on-the-job fatalities have declined significantly over the years
due to a safety emphasis and the safety training provided to
employees.

Live Safely
or
The Safety Book
will reduce your
vulnerability to all accidents. Even "minor" accidents can be
costly and debilitating.
We have an "Accident Epidemic" in this country.
This "epidemic" affects far more people than the viruses that grab the
headlines.
Without a Personal Safety Plan, these are the odds you and your
family face.
-
Over
125,000 Americans will die accidentally in the next twelve months.
Over 35,00 on the roads, over 60,000 at home, and over 25,000 in
public locations.
-
Lifetime odds of
dying accidentally are about 1-in-30 for males (more
than 3%), and
1-in-50
for females (2%).
-
Accidents are the leading cause of death for
kids, teens, and young adults, ages 1 to 41.
-
Every year over 35,000,000 (1-in-8) of us need
medical attention due to off-the-job accidents, 20,000,000+ are temporarily disabled, and
200,000+ are permanently
disabled.

For years,
Gail kept her favorite captain’s chair with its comfortable
seat cushion beside her kitchen pantry. Not only was it an
attractive piece of furniture, it was also perfect to stand
on for reaching objects stored high in the pantry. On a
stylistic whim, she replaced the flat cushion with a thicker
version. The next time she climbed onto the chair, the
surprising thickness of the new cushion caused her to lose
her balance and crash to the floor, injuring her shoulder
and striking her head.
