113 Module 13: Property Damage and Waste Control Program Loss Control Management (LCM)

The statistics of accidents prove that as less accidents take
place, fewer people get hurt.

Prevention of damage to equipment also serves to prevent
hazard to life and limb.
• Safety is indivisible: promotion of safety at home contributes to
safety in the mill; and equipment better protected, the individual
works more effectively and profitably- and with a feeling of
greater accuracy.
• From every vantage point, the Damage Control Program looks like money in the bank.

So far, a sound foundation for safety within the industry has been laid.
• Damage Control, to get at the real truth about accident, is a vulnerable method of exposing the

range and depth of study necessary to achieve effective accident investigation.
• One of my greatest problems has been the man who could see nothing but a profit and loss
account.
• He did not even know that safe working was efficient and that disregard for safety was not even
profitable-and never has been.

• This is a fact that damage control, directed to the establishment of the truth about accidents,
demonstrates beyond arguments.

With these thought in mind, property damage and waste program could result in these benefits.

• Safer plant environment
• Fewer serious injuries.
• Reduced production delays.
• Equipment value awareness.
• Reduced operating costs.
