Winter Working
Manage episode 308280026 series 2520375
With the changing of the seasons comes a change in the challenges we may face. This week, Colin talks about the value of preparation, and why being that extra bit more attentive could spare you an extra degree of stress during the winter period.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Having a robust set of checks in place, and being more attentive than usual, can help to alleviate any extra stresses caused by the challenges of colder weather.
- Factors such as lighting can need to be re-examined due to changing natural light. The same can be said for heating systems. Ensure any timers are updated.
- Walkways and steps must be well maintained, gritted, and clear of spillage. Again, early preparation is key to reducing danger for your people.
BEST MOMENTS
'We can significantly reduce the potential for accidents by becoming more attentive'
'Now's a really good time to hone in on this'
'Take breaks in warm places'
