Change attitudes
September 1st 2011

With falls from height accounting for 24% of all fatal injuries for workers, Safety Point provides a safety poster that addresses this important issue in its range devoted to helping to prevent slips, trips and falls. It is heavy duty encapsulated for durability and features the further 'adventures' of Careless Ken.

Many people also fall on level ground and two thirds of these slip or trip on worn or wet surfaces. But, says Safety Point, the biggest cause of falls is an unsafe attitude and this safety poster is designed to draw attention to this simple fact. The first six readers to respond to this editorial will receive a free copy of the poster.
