When it’s Important to Stay in the Know.
Risk Reduction Strategies that Benefit
Your Business
When you’re looking to lower your company’s liability risks, oftentimes, meeting the minimum health and safety requirements just isn’t enough. Taking a tactical or anticipatory approach accounts for the well-being of your employees and customers. Or ensuring your leadership team has access to training materials and safety resources can better help to implement proactive safety practices in the workplace. Below we outline strategies to help prioritize the safety and welfare of your team, customers and your company.
Avoiding Accidents and Injuries
What are the proper steps employers should take to prevent worksite accidents? For starters, attending to necessary repairs and scheduling regular maintenance checks helps create a safer environment for workers. It’s important to meet with your risk advisor regularly to spot potential issues. Lastly, ensure that you maintain the right coverage to stand protected when the
unexpected does occur. But what if these steps aren’t enough?
Worksite Wellness
Workplace incidents can lead to expensive medical bills, lost productivity and higher insurance premiums. You likely have safety protocols to help prevent on-the-job accidents, but long-term injuries can be just as costly (and even more challenging to identify). It’s important to protect your employees from safety hazards and job conditions that can lead to prolonged health issues.
Safety Matters: Tips to Prevent Slips
From unmarked wet floors, to misplaced mats in high traffic entryways, slips and falls can happen at any time. These accidents account for millions of work-related injuries every year. It’s important to spot unsafe conditions that could lead to slips and falls, and take the right steps to prevent them from happening.
Fitness First: Exercise Programs
Did you know employees with sedentary jobs are more likely to develop long-term health issues from lack of physical activity during the work week? As an employer, you’ll want to make sure your team has access to resources that promote wellness both inside and outside of the office. There are many benefits to being physically active, and a well-balanced fitness program is a great place to start.
