accountability and send a message
to your employees that management
is committed to a safe environment.
Conducting proactive and regular
assessments of high-risk areas is an
effective preventive measure. The
areas that should be assessed regu-
larly include: transition areas; building
entrances; doorways; parking lots;
common areas; and maintain mats
and runners. When it comes to mats
and runners, attention to detail can
reduce accidents. Select the appropri-
ate mat based on location and per-
formance needs. Limit the difference
in height between floor surfaces and
mats to no more than 1/4 to 1/2 an
inch; Inspect mats and runners so they
are not curled.
If an accident does occur in spite
of your best efforts, an immediate
response is necessary. Document
exactly what occurred, including who
was involved and where, why and
how it happened. Learning the details
of an incident is useful for detecting
trends and it can be used to put
measures into place to prevent recur-
rences. Additionally, taking a detailed
account of the accident will reduce
the likelihood of fraud, which can
save you and your business additional
dollars and headaches.
Slips, trips and falls are a seri-
ous issue that can cause substantial
financial damage to your company.
Effective inspection, maintenance and
housekeeping policies and proce-
dures are critical elements of preven-
tion. Embedding safety training and
education efforts into your culture, set-
ting a positive example and holding
employees accountable can make a
significant impact. n
