๐Ÿ’ก Did you know?

You should never put anything in someone's mouth during a seizure.

Despite the old myth, a person cannot swallow their tongue โ€” and putting objects or fingers in their mouth could cause injury.

Instead:
๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ Protect them from injury
โฑ๏ธ Time the seizure
๐Ÿงฅ Cushion their head
๐Ÿšซ Don't restrain them

Knowing what NOT to do can be just as important as knowing what to do.

๐Ÿ’ก Did you know?

Slips, trips and falls on the same level are the most common cause of non-fatal workplace injuries in Great Britain.

And often, the cause is something simple:

๐Ÿ’ง A wet floor
๐Ÿ“ฆ Cluttered walkways
๐Ÿ”Œ Trailing cables
โš ๏ธ Unreported hazards

Small hazards can have big consequences.

๐Ÿ‘€ See it. Report it. Sort it.

๐Ÿ’ก Did you know?

๐Ÿ”” A near miss is a warning! Not a lucky escape to forget about ๐Ÿ””

A near miss is an incident where nobody was injured and nothing was damaged, but where things could easily have ended differently.

Think:
๐Ÿ“ฆ A heavy box falling and narrowly missing someone
๐Ÿ’ง Slipping on a wet floor but catching yourself
๐Ÿ”ง Equipment failing without causing an injury
๐Ÿšง A vehicle almost colliding with a pedestrian

Reporting near misses gives businesses the opportunity to identify hazards and take action BEFORE someone gets hurt.

๐Ÿ’ก No injury doesn't mean no risk.

Creating a workplace where people feel confident reporting hazards and near misses is an important part of building a positive safety culture.

๐Ÿ“š Our IOSH Managing Safelyยฎ course helps managers and supervisors understand risks, responsibilities and practical workplace safety.

World Su***de Prevention Day

Sometimes the people who are struggling the most are the ones who seem like theyโ€™re coping.

Today is a reminder to check in, listen without judgement, and take mental health seriously at work, at home, and in our communities.

A simple conversation can make a real difference.

If youโ€™re worried about someone, donโ€™t ignore that feeling. Ask how they are, give them time to talk, and help them reach support.

At Excel, we believe training and awareness can help people feel more confident supporting others when it matters most.

You are never a burden. Help is always available.

๐Ÿ’š Check in
๐Ÿ’š Listen
๐Ÿ’š Stay with them
๐Ÿ’š Encourage support

๐Ÿ”” Workers have a legal duty to take reasonable care of their own health and safety AND the safety of other people who may be affected by what they do๐Ÿ””

Health & safety isn't just the responsibility of the manager.

That includes:
โš ๏ธ Following safety procedures
๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ Reporting hazards and concerns
๐Ÿฆบ Using equipment correctly
๐Ÿค Considering how your actions could affect others

Good health & safety isn't about ticking boxes- it's about creating a workplace where everyone takes responsibility for keeping themselves and each other safe. ๐Ÿ’š

๐Ÿ’ก Did you know?

๐Ÿ”” Your risk of developing Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) increases on journeys lasting more than 4 hours.๐Ÿ””

Whether you're flying, travelling by coach, or driving long distances, sitting still for extended periods can increase the risk of a blood clot.

To help reduce the risk:
๐Ÿšถ Get up and move around regularly.
๐Ÿ’ง Stay hydrated.
๐Ÿฆต Stretch and flex your legs while seated.
๐Ÿ‘• Avoid tight clothing where possible.

Most journeys are completed without any problems, but knowing how to reduce your risk can help you travel more safely.

โค๏ธ A little movement can go a long way.
