Though the following tips are not the only ones out there, they illustrate key fundamental ideals to contribute to less risk on-site: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Always report unsafe conditions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At times, workers can feel hesitant to share specific unsafe conditions and hazards to their superiors, in the fear of getting themself or someone else in trouble. This is not conducive to a safe work environment as it may increase the potential for an accident or injury to occur on-site. All members of the workforce must report unsafe conditions immediately to help protect their co-workers and themselves. Once a hazard or risk is identified, follow the proper procedure to inform key players to help mitigate risks quickly and effectively. To learn more, read our blog on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ecoonline.com\/en-ca\/blog\/5-steps-to-identify-and-assess-workplace-hazards\/\">5 Steps to Identify and Assess Workplace Hazards<\/a>.     <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Keep a clean workstation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Employees should avoid any unnecessary items near or on their workstations.\u00a0They must\u00a0also\u00a0always remember to clean their workstations from any spillages and\u00a0thoroughly\u00a0sanitize the area if shared with other co-workers.\u00a0According to EHS Daily Advisor\u2019s article,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ecoonline.com\/en-ca\/ehs-software\/safety-management-software\/osha-cor-standards\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">OSHA\u2019s Fatal Four \u2013 Leading Causes of Fatalities in the Workplace<\/a>,\u00a036.5% of\u00a0all\u00a0workplace deaths are attributed to falls. In fact, slips, trips, and falls result\u00a0in multiple workplace injuries every year, so remind employees to take this\u00a0OSHA compliance\u00a0safety tip seriously<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Wear protective equipment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Though this tip may seem obvious, it\u2019s important to remind workers to always wear the necessary personal protective equipment (PPE). Oftentimes, workers may forget or choose not to wear a specific piece of equipment such as protective goggles or a hard hat, as they feel it may be unnecessary or that they can finish the task quickly without it. Personal protective equipment is assigned to keep workers safe and protect them from injury or illness, so always remind them to wear the proper PPE assigned for the task.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Take breaks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Employees who are tired and overworked are a liability on the worksite. Taking breaks is important to help workers rest and recharge before completing certain tasks. Tired team members may pose a risk as they are not able to fully focus on the task at hand, which could cause an incident or accident, potentially harming themselves or others.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Don\u2019t skip steps<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At times, workers may be in a rush to complete a task so they might skip steps to finish faster. They may also not use certain equipment or tools in the proper way to quickly get the job done. This must be avoided at all costs. Remind team members that procedures and workflows are carefully put in place to avoid any chance of risk, so the safest option is to follow them.    <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Stay up to date with new procedures or protocols<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>New procedures, protocols, or even equipment can be introduced to the workplace, so ensure workers are always aware and up to date with these new elements. Proper training and education must be provided to help workers understand what needs to be done to avoid a potential incident. Foster a culture of support and encourage workers to ask questions and speak to their supervisor if they need more help.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. Maintain proper posture <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s important to carry out job tasks with proper posture. From lifting heavy objects to even sitting at a computer, this safety<br>tip is easy to forget when you are caught up in a task. Employees must keep proper posture in mind because it can help them avoid aches, pains, and potential long-term harm to their neck, back, or shoulders.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8. Offer guidance to new employees<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Seasoned and experienced team members should always offer guidance to newer employees. Educating them on the organization\u2019s safety culture and the standards it upholds is essential to keep a strong foundation of safety. If all team members are fully invested in the value that safety offers to not only the organization, but themselves, they can work together to create a safe work environment and a stronger safety culture.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"hs-cta-embed hs-cta-simple-placeholder hs-cta-embed-257347550421\" style=\"max-width:100%; max-height:100%; width:1200px;height:369px\" data-hubspot-wrapper-cta-id=\"257347550421\">\n  <a href=\"https:\/\/cta-eu1.hubspot.com\/web-interactives\/public\/v1\/track\/redirect?encryptedPayload=AVxigLJhvnLpulMaZorXFFjKGcqi36Nf1JngyAsi0JCuhNN9ckRqGQk5njAHe50nX75WcHxsHeFWO4fZB5B467Ym3fn1D0pYiS6TG2DnYuC5XGVJyEyB62ZeiCSj4OWdKvAeJ5fSnbZ0CCJ9H5tcnM1Ul5516nBUl4%2BVy%2BHJyZifN91OvAfdmqh1BmvY9H6W%2FBQHls%2FzkyYF9CDejAlX4SMJn%2Fdo7RSzpJHZGerPwvRpvORnAInbZg%3D%3D&#038;webInteractiveContentId=257347550421&#038;portalId=144606870\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\">\n    <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"workplace safety and sustainability report\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/hubspot-no-cache-eu1-prod.s3.amazonaws.com\/cta\/default\/144606870\/interactive-257347550421.png\" style=\"height: 100%; width: 100%; object-fit: fill\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\"\/>\n  <\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t        <\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"Pegasus__Container w-full   relative h-fit  text-content-dark mobile-stacking-standard is-layout-flow wp-block-pegasus-container-is-layout-flow\" style=\"  padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30); \" id=\"chapter-4\">\n\t        \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t        \t\t\n\t\t\n\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"relative h-full is-flex-layout flex flex-col justify-start  w-full\">\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color has-small-font-size wp-elements-dd5fc897d07b100d44cbfdff6bb98b38\" style=\"color:#000000bf\">CHAPTER 4<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From reporting unsafe conditions to taking breaks, remind workers to always keep these work safety tips in mind to help ensure everyone gets home safely at the end of the day.
