Picture This: Walking the Plank – Without Fall Protection

Ingenuity at its finest or accident waiting to happen? In addition to the obvious lack of fall protection and precarious position this worker is in, the walking space on the plank is limited and awkward which makes any movement dangerous.

That’s if he’s “lucky” enough to survive the fall.

Put a Safe Foot Forward

Slips, trips and falls are among the leading causes of workplace injuries. They occur when housekeeping procedures aren’t followed and enforced, when you rush or fail to pay attention to what you’re doing and where you’re walking, when you don’t wear the right kind of footwear, and when stairways, parking lots, and other walking and working surfaces aren’t well-maintained.
