The extreme cold weather conditions we have been experiencing so far this winter present a number of safety hazards, including extremely cold temperatures and potentially slippery indoor and outdoor walking surfaces caused by ice and snow.

Winter Safety Tips:

• Check the weather conditions regularly, and give yourself extra time when travelling to arrive safely at your destination.
• Dress warmly and stay dry. Wear proper footwear for the weather.
• Slow down; adjust your pace to suit the walking surface.
• Be extra careful on walkways and parking lots where there may be slippery patches.
• When carrying objects, ensure that they do not block your view.
• Clean your footwear thoroughly on floor mats when you come indoors.

Immediately report hazards to Security: 416-675-8500 (e.g. icy walkways/parking lots, and wet or slippery floor surfaces)
