It’s too late to be thinking about winter preparations when the snow and ice are already here. Your business, your staff, your customers and your clients are at risk if you haven't thought about winter preparations, as even a small fall of snow can cause problems. Add to this the potential liability for slip-related accidents and it could be a costly affair.

To quote the Health & Safety Executive, from their website…

“To reduce the risk of slips on ice, frost or snow, you need to assess the risk and put in a system to manage it.”

And:

“Put a procedure in place to prevent an icy surface forming and/or keep pedestrians off the slippery surface”
