Your references only show that 100 years ago, safety and human lives were held in lower value than today – companies and government institutions alike were more inclined to accept fatalities back then.
Your first reference is pretty useless, since it doesn't show fatalities in relation to total man-hours worked. If anything, it would indicate that companies have become less inclined to accept human deaths!
