5 Tips to Keep Your Workplace Accident-free

8/23/2019

6 Comments

 
Picture
​Every employee deserves to work in a safe and clean environment. Accidents happen in the most unexpected situation. Ensure that there is a minimal collision that’s unable to present severe illnesses and injuries.

Here are five safety tips to keep your workplace accident-free:
Provide Training for Employees
Provide comprehensive training to all employees on how to prevent having an injury in the workplace. Be sure that they have access and know how to use equipment safely. 

Partner with occupational clinicians to regularly visit your workplace and to help identify high-risk areas for employee injury.

Use Signs and Labels
Signs and labels are an effective way to communicate such essential situations. Placing photos with details of proper procedures, hazards, and cautions might be a good reminder and warning for new and experienced employee.

Equip your employees on the meaning and description of the signs and labels around the workplace.

Keep Things and Equipment Clean
Unnecessary accidents often start from a messy workplace — clean everything from stacked boxes, spills, tangled cords, unorganized tools to prevent potential dangers. Provide 5S training to organize workspaces properly, efficiently and safely.

Make sure to conduct inspections especially on machine malfunctions regularly as these are the most dangerous office hazards.

Have Insurance for Your Business
Insurance is an essential part of keeping your business safe. It provides help to an employee who got injured from a workplace accident and helped in repairing a damaged piece of the office and equipment without bringing out money from your pocket or on a company’s assets.

Conduct Workplace Safety Meetings
Being over-prepared is better than preparing nothing. Have regular meetings to conduct a review on safety rules and regulations to discuss how to prevent the workplace or your business on accidents. In cases where something happens, every employee knows what to do- in the right way. 

An employee can also bring up in a regular meeting the potential areas that might be accident-prone.

Conclusion
Always ensure the safety of your employees as it is also safe for your business. It is a responsibility to protect employees and have a safe workplace for the company to be healthy and productive. Make sure your company has insurance, that makes it easier to manage.

At Cornerstone Insurance Agency, we do our best in making sure that our clients are well-protected with affordable and comprehensive policies. We make sure to go the extra mile to help you with your needs. To learn more about how we can help you, please contact our agency at (888) 661-8831 or Click Here to request a free quote.

I agree that placing appropriate labels and signs that warn and show to handle something a certain way can help keep employees safe. Accidents that happen at work can be avoided if proper safety precautions are placed. One of these key precautions is signs and labels that explain the potential danger and how to handle it.

You made an excellent point that it is important for us to provide an accident-free work environment for our employees to maintain their safety and well-being. I definitely agree that one of the best ways to do so is to provide the proper labels and signs to indicate hazard and whatsoever. After reading this post, perhaps it would also be prudent for us to also have occupational accident insurance policy provided as a safety measure.

I like your safety tips. Oil spilled in our warehouse. I'll have to get a clean-up crew to take care of it.

Thank you for this brilliant post. These tips are really awesome and creating an accident-free workplace is crucial. I really appreciate efforts on this post. You're so right that "Unnecessary accidents often start from a messy workplace", most of the accident happen because of that, so we have to make sure our workplace is clean.

It's good to know that you can prevent injuries by providing training. My husband was telling me last night about how he is wanting to look into making sure that his employees can stay safe at his new company, and was wondering what would be the best way to do it. I'll make sure to pass this information along to him so that he can look into training his employees.

My son works in a shipping facility and there are a lot of machines and parts the employees have to be careful of. He likes your advice about keeping the equipment clean to avoid potential hazards. He also thinks it would be a good idea to invest in a safety program designed for this kind of environment.
