Safe Clothing

Script: Don Mulholland

Produced by the National Film Board of Canada for the Canadian Department of Labour.

Brogan thinks Foreman McCardle has gone clean off his rocker when he has him, Brogan, carted away to the clinic although he's perfectly well. When Nurse Gilfillan starts to operate--on Brogan's trailing necktie, baggy-sleeved sweater, cuffed pants and worn-out shoes--horrid tales of workers who had worn similar clothing and been reduced to near-hamburger make everything quite clear.
