O'MILL WHISTLE Issued Every Two Weeks By and For the Employees of Fieldcrest Mills, Inc. Spray, North Carolina Copyright, 1954, Fieldcrest Mills, Inc. OTIS MARLOWE Editor Vol. XII Monday, Feb. 8, 1954 No.Ti S-A-F-E-T-Y (John G. Whitaker, Loss Prevention Engineer, Hardware Mutual Casualty Company) S is for sense—the good old common type called “common sense.” Only by using this is it possible to pre vent accidents, and without it no accident program can hope to be successful. So use the intelligence you have to protect, not only the plant safety record, but yourself and others at all times. A is for ability. Without this you would not have the job you now hold. However, everyone can im prove his or her talents and abilit ies day by day with little effort. Your supervisors were promoted to the jobs they now hold for having demonstrated their abilities. Why not follow in their footsteps? F is for fear. You need enough of this to make you think of the results of accidents. Realize that your em ployer, your family, and you will all suffer should you have an ac cident. Recognize the hazards on your job and see what you can do to correct these. E—is for effort. Be sure you have your share of this for it takes effort to make any program successful. Your best efforts will always pay divi dends in job security. T—is for thought. Gives serious thought to your job; think of it as a chal lenge. Think your job through and you will surely profit by more and better work. Y is for year—1954. May it be a safe one and happy and prosperous one. Let’s all of us make a resolution to work safetly through 1954 and protect ourselves and those around us.
