People often slip on floors that have been left wet after cleaning. Stop pedestrian access to smooth wet floors by using barriers, locking doors, or cleaning in sections. Signs and cones only warn of a hazard, they do not prevent people from entering the area. If the spill is not visible, they are usually ignored.

You must ensure that your employees and anyone else who could be affected by your work (such as visitors and members of the public), are kept safe from harm. You must assess the risk from slips and trips and take reasonable precautions.

Third, is the higher protection factor offered by a full face respirator. In the case of a half mask respirator, the assembly is rated for 10X the PEL or Permissible Exposure Limit. That is, if the PEL for a particular dust or vapor is 5mg/m3, the half mask user may be exposed to 10X that amount. But with a full face respirator, because of the inherently better fit, you may use it up to 50X the PEL. The fit is better because the sealing surfaces against the skin are on the smooth parts of the face, rather than having to work around the nose. As with all masks, facial hair will compromise the seal, and the protection will be reduced or eliminated.

A full face respirator offers many advantages over using a half mask respirator. First, allowing only filtered air to touch your eyes and enter your lungs can be a good thing. For instance, when working with mold, spores can enter through the eyes, causing irritation and disease.

Effective training and supervision is essential to ensure cleaning is undertaken to the correct standard. Cleaners need to be informed of their duties and why the cleaning needs to be undertaken in a particular way or at a particular time. Lack of understanding can lead to inappropriate shortcuts.

You must assess the risk from slips and trips and take reasonable precautions. Some simple things you might consider as part of your assessment are:

Good communication is also needed at all levels to ensure messages are effective and the right action is taken, eg between equipment and chemical suppliers to ensure suitability of a product for the type of contaminant and floor.

The process of cleaning can create slip and trip hazards, especially for those entering the area being cleaned, such as the cleaners. Examples include smooth floors left damp and slippery, trailing wires from a vacuum or buffing machine, which can present a trip hazard.
