Burglary and theft
- Put your lights on a timer so that passersby think that there are late-night workers in the building.
- Blinds or tinted windows offer an excellent deterrent for spontaneous theft and break-ins.
- Put up security cameras that record at all times.
- Never leave cash or valuable items visible from the street.
Fire
- Turn off any equipment when not in use.
- Place portable heaters away from flammable objects.
- Invest in an automatic fire alarm that alerts the fire department when it detects smoke.
Customer slip-and-falls
- Implement a policy that requires your team to remove clutter from the floors once an hour.
- Encourage employees to keep all computer and equipment cables tidy at all times.
- Avoid placing objects on stairwells.
- Light all paths and steps effectively.
- Mop up spills as soon as possible and place wet floor signs in damp areas.
- Fix cracked or broken pathways.
Vehicle accidents
- Keep vehicles in good condition. Regularly check the fluids, tires, brakes, lights, and engine. Perform tune ups regularly.
