Soviet work safety posters





Spotted the Soviet posters for work safety over at Laughing Squid. I love how blunt these are.

Last year, whilst staying in Singapore for a while, we were travelling quite a lot by train. On the trains they show a video about what to do if you see a suspicious package. Standard thing: a suspicious looking guy in a hat leaves a bag behind on a crowded train. What should you do!? Is it a bomb? Usually, this video would end with the passengers letting a security guard know, and everyone goes home safe and happy and unexploded. But the Singapore version ended with everyone looking at the package, and then the train going into a tunnel and EXPLODING! Consequences. They're a bitch.


These posters remind me of that.
