Looking back at the records, 1969 appears to have been one of the safest years in modern manufacturing history. There were, by some accounts, only 34 safety complaints filed in total and only two citations issued across the entire U.S. industrial landscape. From that perspective, it means between 1969 and 2019, we saw a 21,638% increase in complaints and a 1,446,600% increase in citations—an objectively dismal and damning record based on these “facts” alone.
