Why Winter Safety is Essential for Your Business
Ignoring winter safety can lead to costly disruptions, regulatory fines, and increased absenteeism. Here’s why taking action matters:
- Employee Health Risks: Prolonged exposure to cold temperatures can exacerbate health conditions and lead to workplace illnesses.
- Accident Prevention: Frost and ice significantly raise the risk of slips, trips, and falls.
- Legal Compliance: The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) requires businesses to maintain safe environments, including addressing winter-specific hazards like temperature controls and icy surfaces.
