Winterizing Your Premises
|
During the winter season, snow, ice and freezing rain can make your office premises hazerdous for your customers.
|
Below are some tips to help you prevent slip & fall incidents:
Inspect the interior of your premises on a regular basis for unsafe conditions that could lead to a slip & fall loss. Maintain a daily log of when the inspection was done, what conditions were noted and what corrective action was taken.
During periods of inclement weather, all entrances should have mats or rugs to help keep the floor clean and dry. Damaged mats should be replaced as soon as possible.
Non-slip wax should be used on floor surfaces, where required.
Water and other spills should be mopped up immediately and a Caution-Wet Floor sign should be posted.
Change your mats on a frequent basis.
Use scrapper mats at exterior doors to reduce ice, snow and dirt being brought into the premises.
