Environment
In a
kitchen, you are at risk of slips, trips and falls when you
are:
- walking
on slippery floors
- working
in a cluttered area
- going
up and down steps
Hot working
conditions may also lead to heat stress, especially when there
is poor ventilation.
Things
you can do to minimise the risk.
- Ask
for floor cleaning products that remove oil and grease.
- Mop
up spills straight away.
- Go
into the kitchen only when necessary
- Keep
walkways clear of clutter.
- Ask
for rest breaks and spend them in a cool area. Drink plenty
of water.
- Wear
non-slip shoes.
