The #1 cause of injuries for state employees is slips, trips, and falls. You can help your co-workers stay safe by providing some training in this area. SORM offers a Slips, Trips, and Falls Prevention class that covers the causes and preventative measures of slips, trips, and falls in the workplace. The course is aimed primarily at maintenance and custodial staff, but can be tailored for specific agency requirements.

Slips, Trips, and Falls Prevention is offered by request in Austin and around the state. This class is free and designed for risk managers, supervisors, and employees at all levels. Request this class for your agency by contacting Steve Shearman at steve.shearman@sorm.state.tx.us.
