How Safe is Your Home?
It is not normally something you focus on, health and safety, especially in your own home. However, your home can be unsafe and unhealthy in various ways. The main hazards in the home include objects lying around on the floor and on stairs that can cause people to trip or fall, poor sanitation on kitchen services that could spread germs and thus cause illness, and finally any electrical equipment that is mishandled causing accidents and even fatalities.

So these, plus many other factors, can prove to be significant health and safety issues under your roof. Your home, therefore, can be a dangerous place. So many accidents happen in the home where people are most at ease and familiar with their surroundings. When people think they know their home and don’t concentrate on certain tasks is when most accidents happen. Statistically, it is interesting to know how many accidents happen in the home and I will be providing this information in the next post but I wanted to first introduce this subject as a means for you to assess the health and safety issues within your own home first and foremost.

Assessing your spaces and potential hazards are important for you and your family. It is not always easy to keep a clean and tidy home and this does not need to be perfect but leaving objects on stairs or not fixing faulty appliances, for example, our potential hazard that could be avoided.

So do you have any stories related to health and safety in your home? Have you ever had an accident in your home or know of someone who has and has become cautious and advisory when it comes to these types of issues? Would be interesting to note all of your experiences and discuss further health and safety regulations not only on your home but in your work as well.
