Festive decorations help to brighten the office and bring holiday cheer. Here are a few tips to make sure this special time of year is fun and safe for everyone:
- Watch the placement of electrical cords; even Santa’s elves avoid creating trip hazard
- Use a proper step stool or ladder to hang ornaments or decorate the tree
- Don’t “daisy chain” electrical cords together or overload outlets
- Ensure wreaths, ornaments and other trimmings do not cover emergency exit signs or block access to fire hose cabinets/fire extinguishers etc.
- Remember to unplug tree lights before leaving for the day!
