Even though the acting is kind of amusing I didnt find it funny because if we start looking as these sort of commercials (from back in the day or even today ) it kind of decencitizes the fact that people get seriously hurt and killed from these sort of accidents in the workplace and anything we see like this shouldn't just be a quick video we watched that we were entertained by … always be careful when working in a dangerous environment .. just because you work in it every day and things become routine doesnt mean you should lose the sense of danger that is around you at all times .. never forget to lose caution just because you've worked for a long time because it only takes one time for something serious to happen
"It takes know-how to prevent an accident….you've got it, so use it.." Those Construction Safety ads aired for years in Ontario, on both TV and radio. The "and share it" part was added to the slogan later on, by the time this ad aired.
Oh, as a kid growing up I loved these commercials. Strangely, they always appeared on the local TV channel (CHCH) on Sunday mornings when they would air programs from Italy.
