Management of spillages and adequate cleaning regimes

Effective systems for matting particularly in wet weather conditions

Ensuring staff have a choice of suitable footwear

Adequate design of workplace and work activities.

Maintenance of plant and the work environment Prevention of contamination

Specification of appropriate flooring

Good housekeeping
