Body

National Fall Prevention Week is the first week of the fall season. Here's a few tips on how to avoid slips, trips and falls in the workplace, from the National Safety Council:

  • When using a ladder, always keep at least three points of contact with the ladder (i.e. two hands and one foot or two feet and one hand).
  • Keep frequently used items in easily reachable areas.
  • Wear shoes with good support and slip- resistant soles.
  • Clean up all spills immediately."
