Mildly disturbing WSIB Ads on TV

The WSIB (Workplace Safety and Insurance Board) kinda like the Ontario version of the WCB has recently started airing some pretty graphic Workplace Safety Ads on TV. I saw one at work yesterday... It involved this Retail Worker falling off a Ladder and into a Glass Display Case. Her Co-worker comes over to her and the Woman gets up, all bloodied and broken and inquires why her Company allowed the Accident to happen.

Now what do you think of these Ads?

I personally thought that although initally a bit of a shock... I have a feeling that they'll be effective amongst new Workers.

Discuss.
