Slips and trips 30.03.2006

— filed under:

As slips and trips were a particular problem, the store branch of the trade union used a slips and trips ‘risk-mapping’ activity to find out more. During the Week they asked staff to indicate on a map of the store where they had slipped or tripped. From the map they were able to see where slips and trips occurred most frequently, and talked to staff about the findings and what improvements could be made.

"UNI-Europa Youth organises young workers up to the age of 35 from 350 unions throughout Europe, and sees its main role in addressing problems that young workers face on the labour market, and advancing the position of young workers. Young people are the future of the labour market; health and safety standards are a focal point for our members and us. Therefore UNI-Europa fully supports the Safe Start Campaign; it brings together the issues that form the basis of a working social Europe."
