An Easter message from the
Track Safety Alliance
“What are the chances of an accident free Easter”
?
Virtually none when we see this!
Or this-
• From 2012 – 2014 we recorded 124 slips, trips and falls in Track Delivery, most were due to underfoot conditions caused by poor
housekeeping, and all were easily preventable.
• In the last month we have seen 2 colleagues sustain horrific leg breaks.

We’ve now reached more than half of last years total
and were only in April !
6 simple steps to prevention- • Keep your own work area and any walking routes free
from obstructions. • Make safe and report any other materials to your
supervisor • Take extra care in areas of artificial lighting or when its
wet / uneven underfoot conditions • Getting in and out of any vehicle should be undertaken
with plenty of care as to stepping areas. • Only use approved access points and use handrails
where provided • Don’t step on catch pit or manhole covers
