Preventing Common Workplace Injuries in Small Businesses - Cork

Can your business afford a serious workplace injury?

Running a small business is demanding and one incident can set everything back.

Workplace injuries can be very costly, but most are predictable and preventable... if you know what to look out for.

In this morning seminar, Health and Safety Authority inspectors will break down the everyday workplace hazards that most commonly lead to injuries, including:

  • Manual handling
  • Slips, trips and falls
  • Work at height
  • Vehicle operations
  • Work equipment and machinery
  • Fire and chemical risks
  • LPG and gas safety
  • Plus other hidden day‑to‑day dangers

These hazards often lead to incidents that can injure your staff, disrupt your operations and result in costly claims and downtime that no small business can afford.
