Please share with all employees, contractors, visitors, and vendors in your areas as an ACT OF SAFETY TODAY :
• Twice in the last couple of weeks local workers have slipped on ice and hit their head.
• One required medical attention with restricted duty.
• The other recovered with no medical aid but is stiff and sore.
• Last year a friend of mine in the local community fell on an icy sidewalk and died from head trauma.
• I have heard from several lately of slips in parking lots and other areas this winter with too many near misses.
• The difference between a near miss, injury, or fatality from a fall and hit to the head is just so little that it cannot be calculated.
• Statistics tell us the margin of error decreases with every related incident.
• It’s really not statistics that matter so don’t become one.
• Going home safe and healthy every day, that is what really matters; right?

PLEASE, please, please be extremely careful walking where there is snow and ice.
You just cannot be too careful on icy walkways.
STOP – LOOK – ANALYZE – MANAGE RISKS OF SLIPPERY TRAVELWAYS; TAKE THE TIME TO DO IT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME; IT IS WORTH THE TIME IT TAKES.

Thanks for the share TR!
