Slips – Garages and Engineering Works

It is fair to say that health and safety legislation and awareness in general has come on leaps and bounds in recent years so that garages and engineering workshops are no longer as hazardous as they once were but slips and trips remain a real danger in such environments.  

Spilled oil, coolant or any other liquid can easily present a slipping hazard and as the floors are often concrete or some similar hard surface even a seemingly innocuous fall can cause some very nasty injuries.

Sometimes its not a spillage as such that causes the problem, it can frequently be fluids that have leaked from cars, engines or other machines but the risks remain the same – as does the duty of the owners to ensure that you are safe while on their premises.      

Likewise with the noise and the bustle of a busy workshop it is all too easy not to notice any items left discarded on the floor, so trips and stumbles are commonplace.
