Visual Literacy: How "Learning to See" Benefits Occupational Safety

Overview

Sometimes you cannot see what is in front of you, even if you know it’s there. Visual biases exist all around us. We may gloss over unsafe working conditions and “fill in” what we’re used to seeing. Applying visual literacy to occupational safety can improve our ability to imagine the potential of hazards.
