Reducing Workplace
Risks
http://www.generalliabilityinsurance.org
Companies must realize that
they can manage both short-
term and long-term risks by
identifying all risks thoroughly
and then compensating for
them.
http://www.generalliabilityinsurance.org
Some common that affect
workers in the workplace
http://www.generalliabilityinsurance.org
Repetitive Movementshttp://www.generalliabilityinsurance.org
The reason for this is that the
risk is not apparent with
individual movement
Noise and Vibration
Noise and vibration is another risk
that is especially dangerous, both
physically and financially, because it
is not always obvious.
http://www.generalliabilityinsurance.org
Liftinghttp://www.generalliabilityinsurance.org
The dangers of lifting are
obvious when the employee is
lifting heavy and awkward
objects.
Trip Hazardshttp://www.generalliabilityinsurance.org
Trip hazards and slippery and
uneven terrain are a common
cause of workplace claims, but
they don’t have to be.
Tools and Sharp Objectshttp://www.generalliabilityinsurance.org
Injuries from power tools are an
obvious danger, but
,
the ones we don’t think about much.
Weatherhttp://www.generalliabilityinsurance.org
Inclement weather comes and
goes, so it can be easy to ignore
it from the perspective of
long-term liability.
Biological and Chemicalhttp://www.generalliabilityinsurance.org
Biological and chemical risks
exist at companies that might
not expect it.
Workplace Specifichttp://www.generalliabilityinsurance.org
The risk identification process must
be done through the lens of the
specific workplace environment.
Conclusion
Risk in the workplace is not always
obvious so a company must be
aggressive about exposing it. That
exposed risk may be a short-term
cost, but it is better to look at it as an
investment.
