Clean House for a Safer Workplace
There is a direct correlation between a clean, neat, well-organized workplace and a safe, successful workplace.
Benefits of good housekeeping:
- Eliminates accident and fire hazards
- Maintains safe and healthy working conditions
- Saves time, money, materials, space, and effort
- Improves productivity and quality
- Boosts employee morale
- Reflects an image of a well-run organization
Poor housekeeping, on the other hand, creates hazards and invites accidents:
- Slips from slick or wet floors or platforms
- Trips from objects or materials left in walkways and work areas
- Falls from holes in walking and working surfaces, uneven flooring, uncovered pits or drains, and boxes and pallets used instead of adequate platforms
- Collisions caused by poorly stored materials, overhanging or protruding objects, and materials and equipment stored in aisles
- Fire hazards created by piles of combustible scrap and trash, improperly stored flammable materials, and blocked emergency exits
- Chemical hazards caused by leaking or damaged containers, improper storage, and inadequate or improper cleanup of spilled materials
