Posted By Brian John Abbs I have to give a presentation in the near future to design office staff on Office Safety and Health. I'm going to cover company procedures, and the laws they are based on/why we do what we do. Slides are to include; Names and Organisation of company safety staff. Fire procedure, DSE assessments, and some manual handling advice. I'm also going to use the accident triangle to demonstrate why near misses should be reported. I want to make it interesting and involve people somehow. Has anyone got any tips on other areas that should be covered and any activities that could be used, like the customary hazard spotting exercises please?

Posted By Debbie Walker I don't know if it's the sort of thing you are looking for but last year I bought 2 "quiz" kits on hazard spotting from RoSPA, one of which was based in an office - we offered a prize of a DVD player (at the time about £100 worth) for the person who correctly spotted all of the hazards (some people even found more than was on the answer sheet which provoked a fairly heated debate! It gets people involved in looking for things which they would normally walk past without thinking of the consequences and was a relatively cheap and easy thing to do. Debbie
