This week we are raising awareness that slips, trips and falls account for approximately half of our more serious injuries.

Materials including a Stop & Think Talk, Video Safety Alert, Posters, revised Get a Grip stickers and a Children's Poster Competition are available for our teams to raise awareness again.

We are highlighting the importance of good housekeeping, always treading carefully and maintaining 3 points of contact on steps, stairways and ladders.

In addition we are encouraging sites to refresh the yellow paint used to highlight changes in floor level.
