After a busy year and, perhaps, an even more frantic pre-Christmas period in your job, it's so easy to relax when it's over and forget about usual health and safety measures, but complacency is the first step on the way to many accidents in the workplace.
These days, most employers are not Scrooge-like and encourage or reward employees with extra time off and easing of the day-to-day pressure but this could mean standards slip perhaps if a more junior worker stands in for a senior supervisor and is not so aware of the need to keep to safe procedures or is unfamiliar with them
Another area of potential danger is when machinery is shut down or re-started before and after a break. This could expose a lack of maintenance or a problem could occur because the mechanism has been idle. Many industrial accidents leading to death or personal injury happen during cleaning or maintenance operations.
Even the office party or similar festivities can be a source of hazards leading to a work-related accident for which the employer could be liable if the victim was not at fault.
Among the dangers of celebrations in the workplace are that the Christmas lunch cooked in the factory canteen could be a source of food poisoning, putting up decorations could lead to a ladder accident and festive drinks spilled on electronic equipment could lead to a fire hazard.
Apart from the risk to employees of the usual slips and trips, which might be exacerbated by food or drink spillage being left on the floor, employers also need to be aware of the duty of supervision to ensure that while workers are on the premises they do not cause danger to themselves or other people through negligence and actions that lead to a work-related accident.
