Welcome to the Safety Zone, Phoenix Safety's monthly newsletter | |
|
Fire Safety
at Home |
 |
This week is National Fire Safety week. The aim this year
is to raise public awareness of fire safety issues, and in
particular, the higher risk to the very young and elderly
people who live alone. Every year approximately 50 people
die from uncontrollable fire outbreak - mostly in their
own homes.

Stop That
Noise! |
 |
According to the WHO, noise induced hearing loss is “the most prevalent
irreversible industrial disease” of the 21st century. Nearly
1/3 of Europe’s workers are exposed to potentially dangerous levels
of noise at work.
As a result the European Agency for Safety and
Health at Work has chosen 'Stop that Noise!' as the theme of this year's
European Week for Safety and Health at Work.

covering that would reduce the likelihood of my
employees/children slipping?
