First, a SAFETY FAIL:
Second, EVERY winter, clients file slip and fall claims related to snow and ice. But not this year! Why? Cheers to United Heartland, they are offering a WalkSafe Campaign (free to the public) that improves employer/employee awareness to this exposure. It creates Personal Accountability too - if you put the program into action! From protective footwear, tabletop tents, window clings, weather warning voicemails, raffles, screensavers on computers - Rick Bartelme, UH's Director of Loss Control, has his ideas on how employers can reduce slip and falls this winter, keep your employees safe, and reduce your work comp premiums.
Rick was kind enough to provide a downloadable Table Tent, WalkSafe Logo, and a detailed Implementation Guide to create an internal WalkSafe campaign using all of their existing materials you can find on their website. The implementation guide would be ideal for a safety committee.
