Ideas to Promote Safety in the Workplace

 

9. PROMOTE STRETCHING BREAKS

These kinds of breaks help by improving work-related ergonomics and the health of your employees. Spending as little as five minutes to stretch your body can loosen your joints, get the blood flowing and reduce the risk of repetitive motion injuries. This can apply to anyone from IT specialists to assembly line workers.

10. USE SAFETY GUIDELINES FROM THE BEGINNING

“Safety first” in the workplace begins on the first day someone starts his or her job with your company. Hire qualified, conscientious employees, including managers who will follow safety protocols. Bring people on board who are competent enough to do their jobs according to the established guidelines.
