I work at a restaurant, we've had two different people plunge their hands into a deep fryer, so I can believe some people need to know that heat is hot
Sadly, it's more insidious than that. It's the same reason there are "Caution: Hot!" labels on coffee. It's because it's cheaper to play a video telling the worker to take responsibility for everything, than for the company to actually make it safe. During the Think About This segment, someone falls into the machine and is woven into a carpet. How about instead of saying, "Woah, watch your step!", you put a safety rail in so you CAN'T fall in? Why are people hanging out right above dangerous machinery? But when they get sued over it, they can be like, "Well, we put up a sign, so we're absolved of all guilt!"
As much as these safety videos seem like common sense, employers are required by state and federal laws to show them. That's why the heat stress video costs $495 because they know businesses are required to have some training video no matter what.
2:45 Like that guy who touched the pan with his fingers while talking about being careful, forgot the burner was on, and immediately burnt his fingerprints off. Farnum Grindtime is the channel. Its in one of his videos.
