I'm searching for colour photographys of people working safely, mainly for training about assessing risks of injury.
I would appreciate any recommendations or offers.

Kieran,
For training purposes, I usually use photographs of people NOT working safely! You then get the audience to find fault with them and arrive at the correct way of working. However if you want to see things done the right way, a good place to look would be the HSE free leaflets, many of which are available in PDF, all are free of charge, and many have photographs and/or diagrams in them. The benefit of this is that you might be able to find precisely the topics you are looking for.

I have a lot of photos on file and will send some to you when I have finished on here. I tend to mix good and bad examples, but the "bads" are never from the place I am actually training in - can be embarassing for the "subject".
Do you want any particular industry or type of work operation ?

Many thanks, Bev.
Merv: firstly thank you for the six you sent me. They arrived 'in one piece' but fortunately saved separately.
As an ergonomist and psychologist, my interest is similar in many ways to your own, i.e. behavioural psychology. In practice, I find work outside the 'high hazard sectors, which still includes the great majority of settings.
My 'specialist' areas are hazards of stress, musculo-skeletal and voice injuries. They involve parts of the body, mind and emotions that lots of people bring just about everywhere!

Have an image that begs the question "Is it safe?" will send it if you want it (to anyone), this have used very successfully when raising questions and points as it does provoke discussions and interest.

Ron, they should be on your desk by now.
Jeff, I'd like a copy please (is it one of those "of course it safe ! I've been doing it that way for 40 years and I've still got most of me fingers "?)
Kieran, sorry, no "low risk" photos. I tend to work in the medium to high risk areas : chemicals, mining, foundries, engineering. (I've even worked in ladies underwear and that can be a dangerous business. Sorry, no photos)

So your secret is finally out. I would have thought cross-dressing amongst miners and foundrymen was decidedly high risk!
Still, whatever turns you on, I suppose.
