Now that winter is upon us, it is time to get your home & property ready for the winter weather. If your employees work outside, there may be additional risks you will want to be aware of to ensure their safety.
Here are some steps to prepare for winter safely:
- Keep an eye out for winter storm warnings
- Be prepared to take caution if there is a winter weather advisory
- If there is a frost or freeze warning, make sure your employees & your property is prepared
- Make sure each employee is adequately clothed for those cold temperatures
