Watch the U.S. Air Force’s Lego safety video
SUMMARY
WorkSafeBC is the name of the Worker's Compensation Board of the Canadian province of British Columbia, covering 2.3 million Canadian workers. The Board is responsible for processing claims, complaints, and (among other things) prevention of workplace accidents. This is where they really shine.
The accident prevention videos the Board makes and uploads to YouTube received more the 25 million views since 2006. They're short and to the point, illustrative of the importance of accident prevention, and have many fans. One such fan is the United States Air Force.
A video called Struck by Mobile Equipment really resonated with the USAF, who formally asked WorkSafeBC if they could use the video as part of their official safety training.
In an article from the Canadian Broadcasting Company (CBC), an official at WorkSafeBC told CBC he received an email from the Air Force saying "We love this piece. It's really effective for our target audience in our Mishap Prevention Program for people who are 18 to 24 years old."
Other areas covered by CBC but not picked up by the Air Force include Returning to Work and Caring for People with Dementia.
