Ideas to Promote Safety in the Workplace

 

7. KEEP IT CLEAN

A cluttered, dirty workplace may lead to avoidable accidents. Be sure that boxes are safely stacked away from walkways. If there are spills, ensure that they are promptly cleaned. Regularly inspect areas for potentially dangerous items such as tangled electronic cords and other cables, disorganized implements and tools and messy, wet floors.

8. USE THE RIGHT TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT

Be sure that all employees have the correct tools they need to do their work. Also, ensure that all the proper tools receive scheduled equipment evaluations and are inspected, serviced and cleaned on a regular basis. Malfunction of equipment is one of the most hazardous workplace issues.
