Last week I attended a training course (as a learner).
Before the course had started, a participtant, who had just entered the room before me tripped on an obvious buldge on the floor covering, this caused the individual to fall against the side of a pointy table, and then sustained, a bang on side of face, a broken nose, plently blood loss, and had to go to hospital (accident and emergency) and remained there for about 6 hours.
Did anyone ever hear/see of accidents at training courses before.

Yes. I twisted my ankle at IOSH HQ :-)
I was doing an external survey looking for problems with roofing, guttering, etc., and managed to find the only uneven part of the back lawn.
We were on a business risk course. It happens to the best of us.

I wasn't on a course, but I was preparing to teach one. Printing off example risk assessments from the photocopier. As I pulled a sheet off the copier I sustained a 2cm paper cut to my left hand.
Oops! Do I now need to do a risk assessment on doing risk assessments?

On the first day of a First Aid at Work course, I walked into the room, caught my finger on the door latch and cut it open. Luckily there was a first aider on hand.......to deal with my embarrassment
