Excerpt from Labor Safety Service: A Report by the Labor Members of the National Committee for the Conservation of Manpower in War IndustriesWar means death and injury on the production front as well as on the battlefield.You might expect that accidents would increase at the same rate as em ployment. But during times of rapid expansion of production, accidents tend to increase much more rapidly than employment. New workers, over crowded workshops, long hours, pressure for increased output, new chemical processes - all of the developments which have marked our defense and war production efforts - have swelled the flood of industrial accidents.The number of accidents in 1940 and 1941 compared with those in 1939, the last full year before the National Defense Program, shows what it has cost us in industrial manpower to arm against the Axis.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
