A lot of the absences at Constructit are due to injuries and this means that there could be a higher percentage of possible work accidents since there is physical activity involved. However, Castor Collins also must be reminded that many on the job injuries are not paid through personal health insurance but through Injured Workers Insurance. 91 employees of Constructit are smokers, which is less than ten percent of the entire employee population. Therefore, the possibility of incurring extra cost for future health issues related to smokers is not a big risk factor. The biggest risk for Castor Collins in insuring the employees of Constructit would probably come from self induced health problems related to smoking and obesity.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's Fatality Analysis Reporting System, within the past 10 years, almost 150 people have died from motorcycle accidents in the state of Idaho. Of these fatalities, over 60% were not wearing a helmet. A recent study (Orsay et al., 1994) published in the Center for Disease Control's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, estimates the use of a properly fitted and secured helmet can reduce the risk of death by over 25%, and reduce serious head trauma in a motorcycle accident by almost 35%. Yet many people still refuse to wear a helmet. The financial burden to society from these accidents is staggering.

This drug significantly reduced cholesterol from 40 percent to 72 percent when given at two-week intervals. It was also given at four-week intervals but the effects were not nearly as significant. However, “Six patients, all receiving REGN727, stopped the therapy due to adverse events which included headache, injection site reactions, and diarrhea” (Curley, Ann, CNN, 2012). Those side effects would likely scare anyone. That is why the government needs to step in and offer a grant for these companies to dig deeper into their studies and come up with something that has less side effects.
Studies show that those who did not wear seat belts… Some think that if your car is equipped with an airbag….

According to IATA in 2012 more than 2.97 billion people travelled by air with a mere 414 people being involved in accident in which they lost their lives. This equates to 29.6 million flights and 15 of those being involved in an accident where there were fatalities (International Air Transport Association 2013). While these odds sound pretty good it is not acceptable to become complacent around safety, even one crash is one too many in the eyes of the industry. Models such as the Reason model or ‘Swiss Cheese model’ have been adopted to investigate incidents and accidents to ensure the correct gaps are filled and the right corrective actions are put in place to prevent re occurrence. This commitment to safety has provided a very safe way to travel, yet some people seem nervous to travel by air.
Kipshakbaev Meiram IS 16.309 Driverless Cars Purpose: Show all of the readers both sides of coin which called “Driverless car”.

This Toyota has a metal timing chain and an excellent service record. I've actually seen these cars with more than 300,000 miles on the original engine and transmission. However, the cheap interior parts like that shifter handle button and the Toyota Corolla interior door handle certainly won't make it that far. Since the 1999 through 2002 Toyota Corolla is one of the best-selling compact cars of all
Ford defended the safety of the Explorer saying its statistics has shown that it is safer than other Sport Utility Vehicles. Ford alleged that it was the defective tires that led to the accidents and recalled 13 million tires for replacement. Firestone insisted that the tires are safe and Ford is replacing them to divert attention away from safety problems with its Explorer. From the case students are expected to understand the ethical dimensions of the controversy. Both Ford and Firestone were aware of the problem in Firestone tires but did not take any action until the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) intervened.
