As temperatures drop, it’s vital to ensure that all personnel across our sites remain safe and prepared for winter conditions. At Fiontar Group, safety is always in season — and preparation is key.
Here are five essential winter safety tips:
- Prevent Slips and Trips: Keep access routes clear of ice and snow. Use grit, salt, and signage proactively.
- Layer Up with Proper PPE: Ensure all site workers are equipped with thermal, waterproof PPE while maintaining mobility.
- Maintain Equipment: Cold weather can affect machinery. Conduct regular pre-start checks and battery inspections.
- Visibility Matters: Winter means shorter daylight hours. Make sure all workers are wearing high-visibility clothing.
- Monitor Weather Updates: Use apps and alerts to stay informed about severe weather conditions in real-time.
Fiontar Group continues to implement seasonal toolboxes and RealSafe induction updates — keeping our workforce informed, compliant, and protected.
