Behind the work
Built from field experience—not content farming.
Morbid Safety is created and edited by a Southern California safety professional with more than 15 years of field experience. The goal is to make serious safety information understandable without watering down the consequence.
The source controls the facts
Incident details begin with public investigations from OSHA, NIOSH, state safety agencies, and worker-fatality investigation programs. Every case links readers to the underlying record.
Professional judgment is clearly separated
These callouts are the editor’s professional safety opinion based on the reported facts, recognized control principles, and applicable rules. They are not quotations from OSHA or a FACE report.
The boundary
Education—not consulting for hire.
Morbid Safety is an independent media project. It does not offer consulting, inspections, training, compliance services, contractor placement, or job-specific safety approval.
CONTROLS BEFORE COMMERCE
Every story begins with the hazard and ends with the strongest practical control. The purpose is to make a documented accident understandable, memorable, and useful before the next shift begins.
The work—not a personality—is the public identity
Morbid Safety does not use the editor’s name or employer to imply approval or attract professional-service work. The public record, the safety lesson, and the control stay at the center.
No employer or client material
Content is independently produced from public sources. It does not use an employer’s time, systems, client information, private case files, pricing, photographs, or proprietary methods.
