Distracted While Walking
Regular and Thorough Cleaning of the Upholstery
Everyone has seen the commercials and the billboards warning people of the dangers of texting while driving. What about the dangers of using a cell phone while walking? There are many videos online of individuals who are distracted while walking and end up injured. While some of these videos can be innocent and funny, the consequences of this unsafe act can be severe.
The list of possible issues distracted walking can create in the workplace is endless. A few basic examples of how using a cell phone while walking at work can lead to injuries include:
- Walking into fixed objects
- Being struck by moving vehicles or equipment
- Walking over an edge or into an open hole
- Tripping over an object
- Walking under a lifted load
It is well-known that any upholstered furniture accumulates as much dirt, dust, and microbes as carpets and rugs.
AM Retail Services will help you to preserve the good condition of your furniture, providing careful vacuuming of the upholstery in our cleaning routine. This prevents the fabric from looking dirty and worn out; additionally, keeping the upholstery clean from dust and dirt also protects the material from tearing.
AM Retail Services also provides extensive options to traditional cleaning: such as cleaning the cushions and all removable parts and vacuuming the small, hard to reach places of your furniture like corners or folds.
OH&S Updates
The next quarterly OHS meeting will be held on the 25th of May 2020 at our head office in Melbourne. There were no lost time injuries in March 2020 and no environmental incidents and no fines from regulators.
