Don't be cut up

This 1959 film outlines the hazards associated with the metal trade industry.

The film is interspersed with title cards including the repeated ‘Accidents need not happen’ and features a voiceover narration dramatically warning against accidents. It is directed at both workers in the factory risking accident and disability, and employers risking loss of production and financial loss.
