Scarfolk Council Health & Safety (1973-1974)
As many of you know, a vaccination introduces a small amount of a virus to the body so that it may build up an immunity.
Scarfolk Council applied the same principle to preparing its employees for accidents in the workplace. For example, to prepare for the eventuality of falling from the roof of the seven storey council building, an employee, during a drill, would be thrown out of a low first floor window. In the case of a gas leak explosion, which could kill fifty people, only three employees would be terminated during the drill.
This method ensured that health and safety ideals were maintained to a high standard throughout the 1970s.
