Ergonomics: preventing tripping and slipping at work

Prevent “silly” accidents in the workplace!

WHAT DOES THIS PREVENTING SLIPS AND TRIPS TRAINING COVER?

Most of us have been walking for years, yet we still fail to avoid “silly tripping accidents”.

Did you know that a worker with a dislocation, sprain or strain is on average absent for 4 days?

In this training, we analyse the main causes of slipping, tripping and falling.

You also receive the necessary safety measures to prevent these accidents in the future. All through practical exercises in your own personal work situation!

WHAT DOES THE LAW SAY?

The employer ensures that every worker receives sufficient and appropriate training on the well-being of workers in the performance of their work, specifically focused on their workstation or function. This training is adapted to the evolution of risks and the emergence of new risks and is, where necessary, repeated at regular intervals. (Code, book II, title 3)
