Slips trips and falls are the number one cause of workplace accidents and so a focus within most risk assessments.

Certain vulnerabilities increase the chance of a fall as well as increasing the likelihood of that fall causing serious damage. This 3 hour session looks at factors that increase the risk and explores preventative and precautionary steps to reduce the risk.
