Workplace safety is not just a matter of regulatory compliance: it is also a lever for performance, quality of life at work, and corporate image. But where to start to enhance safety on a daily basis?
Here are 7 simple, concrete, and effective actions to implement from today.
1. Regularly Raise Awareness Among Teams
Prevention starts with information. Organize awareness sessions, clear postings, and regular reminders about the correct actions, personal protective equipment (PPE), and behaviors to adopt. A well-informed team is already a better-protected team.✨
2. Establish Clear Procedures
Safety procedures should be simple, understandable, and easily accessible to all. Formalize them, display them in the relevant locations, and update them whenever a change occurs. A good digital tool like Vesuv can help you centralize and share these procedures.
3. Regularly Check Equipment
Defective equipment is an immediate risk. Schedule regular checks (vehicles, machines, PPE, tools) and set up a simple system for reporting anomalies so that they can be addressed quickly. For example, a driver can report a warning light on their vehicle with just a few clicks.🚙
4. Arrange Workspaces
A poorly arranged site multiplies dangers: slippery floors, cramped passages, insufficient lighting, chaotic storage. Diagnose your spaces and make the necessary adjustments to limit risks.
5. Promote a “Near-Miss” Culture
Encourage your teams to report not only accidents but also dangerous situations and near-misses. By identifying weak signals, serious incidents can be prevented. Again, a digital tool simplifies this process.💻
6. Train in Life-Saving Actions
Even with the best precautions, an incident can occur. Training your teams in first aid, the use of fire extinguishers, or emergency evacuation helps limit the consequences of an accident and can save lives.
7. Monitor Safety Indicators
Establish a few key indicators to track your progress: number of incidents, rate of reporting anomalies, compliance of checks, etc. This allows you to adjust your actions and demonstrate your efforts in terms of safety.⛑️
Conclusion
Workplace safety relies as much on concrete actions as on a true culture shared by all. If you wish to structure your initiatives, Vesuv offers simple and effective solutions to digitize your procedures, report anomalies, and track your indicators in real-time.
