So far I've produced:

Messes Awful - Will Cause A Fall!

and

Housekeeping Poor - Wind Up On The Floor!

Has anyone produced any easy read posters, etc. on this subject, or anything else suitable for use in charity shops that have volunteers with learning disabilities?

Has anyone taken any non-copyright photos that would be useful?

I've always stuck with "The job isn't finished until its all tidied up".

Not very catchy though . . . :-(

Gave the job of coming up with slogans to one of our work experience boys a while back. His best was "Be safe or be sacked!" Sadly we weren't allowed to use this.

If you spill it - wipe it up

If you drop it - pick it up

Have you looked at implementing a Kaisen 5S type approach. This works well when properly implemented. Wikipedia describes this in more detail.

All the best

Interesting and could be useful if kept simple.

I'm becoming more and more involved in the 5 S approach. It really does make a diference in both our factory and offices, if only to remove well intended saved clutter (first 'S'). The most difficult thing for me personally was clearing my own mess, ie samples of gloves, specs, hearing protection, and my personal stash of over ordered yet to be put up safety signs etc etc etc from under my desk.

Ok, here you are; add to, modify, ignore but its free to all:

If you leave the place in a tip
You’re going to fall or to trip
Don’t be so dizzy
Get yourself busy
And chuck that stuff in the skip

To leave rubbish around is a sin
So let’s have it all in the bin
Put it safely away
So you won’t have to say
I’ve fallen and injured my shin!

When the place is tidy and clean
And litter no more can be seen
You can be smug
Cos you’re not the big lug
Who’s let down the rest of the team

If you leave the workroom in a tip
Someones gonna slip over or trip
So don’t be so silly (is 'a divvy' not PC?)
Get yourself busy
And tidy that mess pip pip pip

To leave clutter around is a sin
Let’s have it looking like a new pin
Put it all safely away
So you won’t have to say
Oops I’ve fallen and wounded my chin!

When the shop is tidy and clean
Spills and muddle no more can be seen
You can be smug
Cos you’re not the big mug
Who’s let down the rest of the team

See It

Own It

Deal with It.

SOD IT

(Translation: If you see it, its YOUR responsibility to do something about it...)

Raises a laugh or two, gets a bit of chatter going, and may even cause one or two people to take action where previously they wouldn't have....
