My question is if you aware of any web sites in the public domain in
any country that cover things like Safety Driving? Accident prevention
& Fire Prevention, Safe handling and lifting etc. We are looking for
either WBT's or just
websites that will give us usable safety tips that might work for an
European audience. Most of our audience work in an office area.
We are looking for hints and tips to make work but also personal life
more safe to increase awareness for safety.
Thanks for your help. |

jdesiron-ga,
Materials prepared by the US government are generally public domain,
and can be reproduced freely, modified, or used however you like.
There are public-domain safety materials such as this one:
http://www.osha.gov/SLTC/etools/computerworkstations/pdffiles/checklist1.pdf
Would more materials like these meet your needs? If so, I'd be glad
to search around for them. If not, perhaps you can let me know a bit
more detail about what you're after.
Thanks,
pafalafa-ga

Yes indeed, it is amongst those lines I am searching. I know there is
a lot out there, but I would just like to have a link list with safety
hints & tips that could be relevant for:
a. an European Audience, so preferably a website in one of the European countries
b. people who work in office environments
c. theme's would be
- accident & fire prevention
- safe handling and lifting
- safe driving
- ...
Perhaps there is a website that has a safety tip of day.
This requirement sounds perhaps a bit strange, but I was counting on
your searching experience to save me a few hours of ploughing through
search results!

jdesiron-ga,
Perhaps I'm not understanding your use of the phrase "public domain".
To me, this means material that is not copyright, and can be freely
reproduced. US government publications are almost all public domain,
but this is not the case for most other governments.
UK goverment publications, for instance, are protected by Crown
Copyright, and cannot be freely reproduced unless the copyright is
waived.
If you're looking specifically for European-friendly, public domain
materials, I'm not sure if I can assist you.
If I've misunderstood your question, perhaps you can clarify what you're after.
Thanks,
paf

Oh my, you are absolutely right. Sorry, I made this needlessly
complicated. Publicly accessible is what I meant.
I actually only wanted to link to them, no plans want to modify it.
