Employer tips
Use the Employer's Guide to help you identify problem areas and for tips on things you can do to your workplace to prevent slips and falls. Use the sample slip and falls audit form when surveying your workplace.
Consider implementing a "Snow and ice program" that includes keeping an ice log for snow management purposes. This log is a sample; customize it to work for your organization.
