Don’t slip up on safety

Slips and trips resulting in falls are a
common cause of major workplace
injuries and a contributing factor to
many over-3-day injuries. They can
occasionally lead directly to fatal
accidents usually from head injuries.

According to NonSlip Safety
Products, evidence suggests slips are
indirectly responsible for many fatal
accidents; slips are often the ‘first
event’ in falls from height, and
simple slip injuries can lead to
complications in older people, such
as thromboses or embolisms.

NonSlip specialises in stair
nosings, safety handrails and many
other products to help prevent
accidents and meet health and safety
regulations.
