We’ve all slipped on the snow or ice in the winter… and tripped over a loose piece of carpet or our kids’ toys…and not thought much about it.

But in on the job, slips, trips, and falls can be serious problems. In fact, they’re involved in most of the accidents that occur in the food industry now-a-days. Fortunately, slips, trips and falls can be prevented.

This program contains valuable information about how to identify, avoid and prevent hazards that cause slips, trips and falls and what employees can do to prevent them – both at work and at home.

Topics covered include:

• How your “center of gravity” affects balance & stability
• Defining “slips”, “trips” and “falls”
• How to navigate walking surfaces safely
• Footwear to prevent slips, trips and falls
• How to “fall properly”
• and more
