Returning to Work After a Holiday

Though we wish the holidays could last forever, we must return to work. When it is time to return to work, here's how to do it safely!

It's important when we return back to work that we do so with 100% focus. In addition to improving productivity, it can also keep us safe and healthy once we are back in the workplace. 

One of the hardest things when returning for work is staying on task. It is easy to day dream about the cozy holiday you just had but this can put you more at risk for safety concerns and can danger those around you. 

For factories and industrial positions, keeping yourself safe requires you to pay close attention to your surroundings.  For managers, keep close attention to workplace safety with video surveillance. Sonitrol's video surveillance can reduce crime, increase customer and employee safety, and document disputed events. 

Having a break from the office can make you forget specific hazards at work. 

For Office Employees 

-Sitting too much can have negative impact on your spine and posture. Take regular breaks from your desk to the restroom or to get a drink. 

For Industrial and Manual Workers

- There can be countless hazards depending on your specific environment. Remind yourself of procedures and threats to your safety and health. 

Some things are out of our control when it comes to safety but it is important that we stay focused and prepared for emergencies. 

-Have an emergency plan in place for your workplace and plan for the unexpected. 

-Does your fire alarm system call help for you? We install smoke and heat detectors and monitor them 24/7. Ensure the safety of your workplace with our monitored fire system. Our systems are designed and installed to comply with local codes and monitored so firefighters respond faster to keep the facility and the people in it safe.
