UK-HSE-College involves students and staff in slips and trips campaign
Slips and trips campaign - Darlington College supports UK Health and Safety Executive Shattered Lives campaign which aims to reduce slips, trips and falls in the workplace.
Staff and students at Darlington College's state-of-the-art premises are putting safety first for the benefit of everyone on site.
The college, on the £35m Haughton Road campus, has always put safety first and is now supporting the Health and Safety Executive's "Shattered Lives" campaign which aims to reduce slips, trips and falls in the workplace.
Slips and trips are the most common cause of major workplace injury in Britain and resulted in at least 4,000 working days being lost in the North East last year. In the education sector alone there were almost 2,000 slips and trips - one resulting in a fatality, more than 1,000 causing major injuries and almost 1,500 that led to the person being off work for three days or more.
