Slips, trips and falls are among the most common workplace hazards contributing to serious injuries each year. These accidents are responsible for over a third of all reported major injuries and cost £512 million annually, as per the Health and Safety Executive (HSE).
Providers of cleaning services have a legal responsibility to protect their employees and anyone else who may be at risk. They also hold a financial obligation to protect their organisation from the costs of health and safety fines and claims.
This preventing slips, trips and falls to members of the public online training course helps to minimise the risk of this a common workplace hazard that puts the general public at risk.
This course explores the role and responsibilities of cleaners to ensure that their work practices do not affect the safety of the general public. At a minimum, their cleaning operations should not add to the problem, for example, leaving a wet floor after cleaning, which someone then slips on.
