The Funny Side of Safety (Video Gallery)

Dec. 3, 2013

Make no mistake: There’s nothing funny about workplace accidents and injuries. But in the solemn, serious and sober world of EHS, a bit of humor can be good medicine –­ whether it’s a dose of silliness added to safety training, or a few laughs during your lunch hour to help get you through the rest of the day.

With that in mind, we’re sharing a few funny takes on workplace safety from YouTube. Click on the links to watch the videos (in some cases, you might have to click “skip ad”), and let us know which ones tickle your funny bone (or which ones don't). And if you have humorous safety-related videos that you’d like us to add to the collection, by all means give us a shout!

By the way, if you like this kind of stuff, you might want to check out "Dumb Things People do with Forklifts," a video gallery posted by sister publication Material Handling & Logistics.
