An unsafe act is any action that a human can take which may cause danger to living beings or surrounding material items (i.e. a house, a car, a garden, etc).
An unsafe condition is the state of being which may lead to that danger and possible loss.
For example: A bridge needs to be maintained. A man is assigned the duty of cleaning, priming, and painting the bridge. The man fails to clean the rust off of the bridge before he paints it. The paint fails to protect the metal of the bridge which rusts further and the bridge becomes unstable due to the weakened metal where the rust is.
The man has acted unsafely and now the bridge is in an unsafe condition.
Another example: A man fails to latch the tiger cage so that the tiger escapes and is able to mingle with the zoo patrons. The man acted unsafely by failing to secure the latch. The tiger is now able to roam the zoo, which is the unsafe condition. (Notice that the tiger is not acting unsafely. It cannot discern between safe and unsafe. The tiger is only part of the unsafe condition.)
Only people can do an unsafe act, but an unsafe act can lead to any number of unsafe conditions with any number of factors.
