Walkway Safety Management Protocols
Even a well-designed facility can experience fall incidents in the absence of effective management controls. The objective of management controls is to ensure the facility is maintained in a condition that is reasonably free from walkway hazards. Walkway safety programs considered appropriate for a small facility would differ substantially from those designed for a larger facility.
Advancing Safer Walking Surfaces Step by Step
Effective slip and fall prevention requires a thorough understanding of flooring. This encompasses the types and composition of flooring materials, treatments, and cleaning products. The primary reason for accurately identifying flooring material types is that each requires distinct cleaning and maintenance procedures. Understanding the surface composition is crucial for selecting floor treatments and finishes that are both safe and effective.
