Good Housekeeping (IOSH Approved and CPD certified)
We all know accidents happen, right? Stubbing your toe, banging your head, and the most painful of all, standing on that rogue drawing pin… aaagh. Ok, accidents like this are difficult to prevent but thankfully don’t usually leave any lasting damage.
In the workplace, it’s a different story. A big cause of preventable injuries at work is poor housekeeping, which can have not only a negative effect on your workforce but also legal implications for you as a business. Good housekeeping includes anything that helps ensure the safety of workers, from preventing trip hazards, controlling hazardous substances, to fire safety. Good housekeeping should be the foundation of a safe workplace environment.
