This video explains how crews identify unwanted events linked to specific hazards to strengthen controls. Using examples like gravity and motion, it shows how hazards such as falls, dropped tools, or contact with moving equipment each require their own controls. The focus is on building capacity to prevent harm by learning from normal work and anticipating failure.

HDD Life Ending Head Injury Incident
This video recounts an incident where a directional drill foreman was struck by a wrench after the machine auto-rotated during maintenance. Both experienced workers overlooked lockout procedures and failed to remove the drill housing. It emphasizes verifying energy isolation, removing tools before restart, and maintaining discipline even in remote or time-pressured conditions.
HDD Machine Incident
This video recounts a serious incident on a gas distribution project where lack of communication and control verification led to a life-altering injury. It reinforces the importance of two-way communication, energy isolation, and physical barriers before working near STKY hazards. Crews learn to stop, verify, and ensure controls are active before starting work.
STKY Discussions – Visitors
This video shows how leaders and crews use STKY discussions to identify high-energy hazards during real work, not just during planning. A visitor joins a crew on-site to talk through STKY risks, prevention, and mitigation using the Energy Wheel. These conversations strengthen awareness, reveal hidden hazards, and build capacity to fail safely every day.
STKY Discussions – Job Briefings
This video demonstrates how crews use STKY discussions to identify, control, and plan for high-energy hazards using the Energy Wheel. It shows a real-world example of a transformer change-out where workers address electrical, gravity, and fall hazards, building capacity to fail safely. Regular STKY discussions strengthen prevention and keep every crew ready for failure.
