Slips, trips, and falls are among the most common workplace accidents, but they are also among the most preventable. Being aware of one’s surroundings and taking proactive measures can significantly reduce the risk of these accidents.

Ensuring safety is our utmost priority at Step and Store. This week, as part of National Safety Month, we are emphasising the risks that Slips, Trips, and Falls can pose in the workplace. So, we have outlined 5 tips to reduce these risks and foster a safer work environment for all.

Tips to Prevent Slips, Trips, and Falls

1. Keep Walkways Clear: Ensure all walkways and work areas are free of clutter and obstructions.
2. Maintain Good Housekeeping: Immediately clean up spills, debris, and other hazards.
3. Clear Signage: Clearly mark wet floors and other hazardous areas with appropriate signage.
4. Inspect Flooring: Regularly check the flooring for uneven surfaces, loose tiles, or carpeting that could cause trips.
5. Improve Lighting: Ensure all areas are well-lit to help employees see potential hazards.
