1 in 1000 Hospitality Staff Are Injured At Work Every Year

Hospitality staff are likely to know the risks within their job. While most shifts go by without any accidents, according to HSE.gov every year over 1 in 1,000 workers in the hospitality industry are injured at work.

There are a variety of risks involved with working within the HoReCa industry. The most common injuries are

• Slip and fall accidents
• Cuts from broken glass and shards of metal
• Accidents involving machinery and equipment
• Burns, scalds, cuts and grazes
• Lifting and carrying heavy loads
• Exposure to hazardous substances
• Falling objects and more

There are a few reasons why these injuries occur within the HoReCa industry

• Employees are often on their feet for long periods of time, which can lead to fatigue, musculoskeletal disorders, foot pain, and other injuries.
• Additionally, many HoReCa industry jobs involve moving around a lot, which can increase the risk of trips and falls.
• Many HoReCa industry workplaces (such as restaurants) can be hazardous due to uneven floors, slippery floors and other potential hazards.

There are a few things that employers can do to help reduce the risk of foot injuries in the HoReCa industry

• Firstly, they can make sure that employees have adequate rest breaks and are not on their feet for excessively long periods of time.
• Additionally, they can provide employees with appropriate footwear that is comfortable and supports the feet.
• Finally, employers can create a safe working environment by reducing potential hazards and ensuring that floors are clean and dry.
