Passage Summary: Experts thought better safety training would make workplaces safer, but companies that implemented these programs in the 1980s actually saw an immediate spike in reported accidents.

Reasoning: N/A

Analysis: The conflict is between the intended goal of safety training and the immediate statistical outcome of more accidents. In these types of paradoxes, the 'increase' is often a matter of perception or reporting rather than a literal increase in danger. If the training taught workers how to identify and report accidents they previously ignored, the numbers would go up even if the floor became safer. Look for an explanation that accounts for this sudden change in data collection or worker awareness.
