Ohio Bureau of Workers Compensation

  • Falls are the second leading cause of fatalities in the workplace.

  • Maintain focus and concentration while using the stairs.

Slide3: Tip #2: Use the Hand Rail

  • Empty hands and arms to allow for proper use of the handrail.
  • Using the handrail provides stability and helps catch oneself if stumbling occurs.
  • Always wash or sanitize hands after touching the handrail.

Slide4: Tip #3: Inspect the Steps Periodically

  • Do a visual check for items, liquids, or damaged steps.
  • Watch for slippery surfaces and keep steps clear of any obstacles.
  • Ensure good lighting for better visibility.

  • Lift your entire foot clear of the tread, including the heel.
  • Avoid skipping steps and maintain a deliberate walking pace.

Slide6: Tip #5: Find it, Fix it

  • Report unsafe conditions and hazards.
  • Don't ignore or walk past hazards; take action to address them.
