Welcome to the Safety Zone, Phoenix Safety's monthly newsletter
Swing Set Safety Tips
Backyard swing sets provide a great way for kids to develop strength and balance, and to have hours of fun! We owe it to them to make their play environment safe. So here are our top ten tips for keeping the swing set all about fun, without the tears!

                                  

Summer Job Safety

Gaining early work experience over the summer holidays is a great way for young people to kick start their careers or try new activities.  On the other hand if the focus is on learning new job skills and making a good impression, safety can fall by the wayside.

Marathon Rewards
On Monday 4th June, two Phoenix Safety teams took on the Cork City Marathon. We had fantastic supporters, lots of fun along the way and most importantly we raised money for our two charities National Guide Dogs for the Blind and Central Remedial Clinic.  Special thanks to both our charities, in particular Bernadette Healy and Olive Smyth, for all their support in the build up and on the day; it was very much appreciated. Next year, we’re doing the 26 miles?!                  
Public Courses
Due to the success of our last two Dublin courses we have decided to run the 5 day Manual Handling Instructor course in Dublin again. This course will begin on August 13th. Please book early to avoid disappointment!

Q&A section with Paul Tierney  

A Portuguese employee has just commenced work with our organisation. He is the first non-English speaking national we hired. I am wondering how to tackle the language barrier to ensure he understands our safety statement and procedures?

Kind Regards Philip

Hi Paul, I work in a manufacturing plant. During the recent hot spell, people complained of discomfort due to the high temperature on the floor and asked to go home. What is the maximum legal temperature for working indoors and what do you recommend we do for our employees during these days?

Regards,  
Noel
