Don't slip up over falls prevention...

Slips, trips and falls are the leading cause of major injuries in the workplace but are almost entirely preventable, often with simple inexpensive interventions.

HSE's 1 day course, 'Slips and Trips - Falls Prevention', will help you understand the causes of slips, trips and falls, and highlight successful interventions that can help you to reduce workplace falls.

Previous attendees of our slip, trip and fall training courses have reported a reduction in incidents of up to 50%.

'Slips and Trips - Falls Prevention' will be presented at HSE's Science and Research Centre in Buxton, Derbyshire on Wednesday 10 July 2019.

... and take steps to assess your stairs

In the UK there is a fall on stairs every 90 seconds.

Properly understanding both stair design and human performance is the key to managing risk.

Simple, cost-effective improvements to existing stairs can significantly reduce the risk of a serious fall.

HSE's 1 day course - 'Stair Assessment' - will help you understand the design features of stairs that can give rise to a risk of falling, and identify simple remedial improvements to reduce this risk.

To be held on Thursday 11 July 2019 at HSE's Science and Research Centre in Buxton, Derbyshire, 'Stair Assessment' will equip you with the knowledge and skills to assess stairs in your own premises, and identify examples of good and bad practice.
