Consider the following OSHA recommendations to protect workers from fall accidents: 🦺 Installing a modular guardrail system to protect employees from fall accidents. These systems prevent falls by creating a barrier, blocking access, and by drawing special attention to dangerous areas. 🦺 Utilizing a safety gate at guardrail openings, ladderways, staircases and other high-risk areas in your facility. 🦺 Install guardrails around every overhead platform, elevated workstation, floor, or runway 4 feet or more above the lower level. 🦺 If an employee can fall onto or into dangerous equipment or machines (such as pulpers, meat grinders, conveyor belts, vats of acids, etc.), install machine guarding systems to prevent employees from getting injured, regardless of height. 🦺 Guard every floor hole into which a worker can accidentally walk (using railing and toe-board or floor hole cover). 🚨 BONUS TRACK🚨 Install Titan Anti-Slip Clips on your grated surfaces to provide enhanced grip and visibility!

As safety consultants, we have seen first-hand the devastating consequences of entanglement injuries. 👷  🚨 These accidents can happen in an instant, but their impact can last a lifetime.  Picture this: long hair or loose clothing getting caught in unguarded moving parts of machinery. It could be you operating the equipment, or someone working nearby. The results can be catastrophic - from scalp injuries to severe trauma or worse.    Common culprits include:   🛑Rotating shafts  🛑Spinning drills   🛑Conveyor belts   🛑Lathe machines    If we all work together, we can prevent these incidents. Remember, safety isn’t just about rules - it’s about caring for ourselves and our colleagues. Let’s look out for each other and speak up when we see potential hazards.  #safetyculture #safetyhazard #workplacesafety
