It is the employers responsibility to ensure all employees wear the correct protective clothing to prevent accidents and injuries. If a potential hazard occurs you should report to your manager immediately or any superior. This is to prevent any further incidents. To prevent accidents in a place of work, all employees must follow the safety rules given. The following are examples of what could be an unsafe conduct in a work environment and what to do to prevent them: Keep all safety exits clear (no boxes or equipment in the way) Do not carry heavy equipment without using a trolley Do not leave chairs away from desks when not used Tidy all wires (out of the way to prevent tripping) Make sure all dangerous chemicals are securely stored and labelled Make sure drawers and cupboards are not left open
