Office Induction: Slips Trips and Falls

A common cause of injury in the office are slips trips and falls. We tend to think of the danger of falls being related to working at heights. But trips over cords or material lying in aisle ways, slipping on wet or greasy surface, or tripping on stairs or uneven surfaces, can also result in serious injury. This Slips Trips & Falls course will remind your workers to not only take care of themselves but also others in the workplace through good housekeeping and hazard identification. Once the course is completed you will have learnt how to identify the slips, trips and falls hazards in the office environment, how to assess the risk and implement controls to prevent injury, and some simple safety rules for using stairs. This course is one part of an 18 part Office Induction series aimed at new inductees and existing office workers.
