unsafe acts because they seek and often
gain ati antion by their behavior. Their
need for attention causes them to "Show-
off" by being daring and taking riske.

Men often act uneafely because thay
-are not attending to thse details of their
works Irstead of focusing | their attention
on what they. are doing, they sometimes
become” “‘Frececupied: with worries about
money matters, . illness, fanily. problems,
and other kinds of worries. Often such
worries become so intense and long -
lasting that the men don’t properly see
and hea; what goes on around them. They
become, so to say, wrapped up in thea
selves. This state of mind is very
often the immediate fector behind the
unsafe sct.
Creek your habits end attitudes to
try and help yourself to not have
accidents. Spread your knowledge around
amongst your fellow men, friends and
family.
