The HIDDEN Cost of eye accidents is higher

Bookkeeping records seldom show the true costs of eye accidents—merely compensation and medical expense. However, the “hidden” costs* (machinery and work damage, idle time and lowered worker morale, to name but a few) are estimated— by a recognized authority—to be four times the amount of the direct cost of eye accidents.

Why not let your nearest A-O Safety Representative show you how much an adequate eye-protection program can save for you.
