Think Safe – Work Safe

Safety Topic:  Preventing slips and trips in the winter

 

Be safe this winter and practice safe walking:

  • Only walk on areas cleared of ice and snow – don’t take shortcuts.
  • Wear appropriate footwear with good traction.
  • Walk taking short steps and at a slower pace.
  • Report any areas that need salt – especially during warm days and cold nights when snow can melt and refreeze.
  • Don’t walk distracted – put your phone away until you reach your destination.
