Course details
Winter Safety (MARCOM)
Course Overview
This online Winter Safety course shows employees how to plan ahead, identify potential hazards and avoid dangerous situations that occur during the winter holiday season. Over the years employers have discovered that their employees miss more time from work as a result of off-the-job accidents than due to injuries experienced on the job. Many of these accidents occur during the winter, as employees do things that they are not familiar with or haven't done since last year. Fortunately, most of these accidents can be prevented. Areas covered in the course include Christmas trees (selecting, transporting and setting up), using string lights, safe use of extension cords and outlets, fires, fireplaces and chimneys, using candles, fire extinguishers and fire escapes, dressing for cold weather, working in the cold, walking and driving in ice and snow, and more.
