Dos and Don ts - Slip, trip and falls:
Keep work areas neat and tidy, putting tools, materials, and other items away after use.
Pick up items off the floor, even if they didn’t put them there.
Step over or around obstructions, not on them.
Walk slowly and change directions slowly, especially when carrying a load.
Watch for changes in floor level—such as a few steps or a ramp up or down.
Report lighting problems, such as burned-out bulbs, to maintenance right away.
Use a flashlight if they need more light leaving the facility in the dark.
Don’t leave boxes, bags, tools, or other materials on the floor.
Don’t block walkways with hand trucks, equipment, or materials.
Don’t leave cords or cables in walkways.
Don’t place anything on stairs.
Don’t leave drawers open.
