I am trying to put together a presentation, that will allow those subjected to it, the opportunity to recognise and identify hazards from either genuine of staged pictures (i.e. Can they identify the hazards from these pictures)

I require about twenty or so for the presentation, but a library of more would be preferable to allow change.

If you have any that you think would be suitable for such an exercise or could direct me to a source I would be most grateful.

Thanks,

Hi Paul
I use the Blind Mans Bluff dvd for hazard spotting training sessions and find it excellent, try www.rospa.com and go to the link to view.

Hi Paul,

If you do a search on Google images using phrases such as 'dangerous work', 'accidents' etc. you can find a lot of photo images that way. If you send me your E-mail address, I will sent you images that I have stored.

I have in the past used stills from old black and white movies - Laurel and Hardy, Buster Keaton, Harold Lloyd, Charlie Chaplin. Seriously!

I wouldn't recommend using them exclusively in a presentation, but they do help to emphasise certain points, there's plenty of them on the web, and they get a reaction from the audience.

You can have short "how did they do that?" discussions, too. Much planning and work went into making some of those apparently hazardous scenes safe.

Modern movie stills are no good as it can all be done digitally these days, but on that theme it's not too time intensive to get a digital camera and a basic photo-editing package and paste some hazards into any workplace you like. (Oh all right - it's not too time intensive for me, as I went to art college and used to be a printer. but I believe the point is valid...)

Have you considered taking a few photos of bad practice (if there is any) within your (or the students') work location(s)? Or you could always pop down to the local shopping precinct, there are normally one or two bad examples just waiting to be caught on film(memory card).
