The latest news reports predict that this winter could be one of the worst in recent history, with months of freezing winds and heavy snow ahead. Not only can this disrupt work, close sites and cause expensive delays, the winter weather can also result in poor working conditions that could lead to serious injuries.

normalIn order to ensure that businesses keep running and workers and customers remain safe, Arco, the UK’s leading safety supplier, will be offering a full range of products specifically designed to help tackle the harsh conditions. To help businesses stay prepared this winter, Arco has also created an Expert Guide to Workplace Safety in Extreme Weather Conditions. The guide offers advice on preparing for extreme weather, practical guidance on dealing with snow, ice and maintaining safety equipment as well as listing Arco’s comprehensive range of products.

Liz Johnson, Product and Procurement Manager – Workplace Safety at Arco states ‘Arco is committed to helping keep workplaces operating safely and part of this is ensuring that both businesses and employees are stocked up on essential workplace safety items. Arco can help businesses with personal protective equipment, salt spreading and snow clearing equipment and products to protect property against flooding, including sand bags and hydro sacks.’

It is vital that access to the workplace remains safe and free from hazards such as ice and snow. Salt, ideal for clearing paths and minimising slips, trips and falls, can be delivered by Arco in packaging and quantities to suit individual requirements. Arco also offers a full range of salt spreading equipment, grit bins and snow shovels.
