Encourage Communication
People become more susceptible to injury if they don’t know about a potential hazard. Suppose you’re using a new essential oil or experimenting with a new treatment type. You should talk to your staff about the new product and how it can affect those with sensitive skin. Clear lines of communication can help you prevent problems and confusion.
Improve Safety Culture
People are less likely to have an accident if they’re in the habit of staying healthy and thinking about the safety of others. Your staff should prioritize all COVID-19-related protocols like wearing disposable masks and stay a safe distance away from clients when possible. You should also bring up conversations about safety to keep it at the front of everyone’s minds. Consider putting up informational posters and notices.
Train People in Emergency Skills
One of the easiest ways to boost the safety of your workplace is to train your staff. The people in your spa shouldn’t be helpless if an emergency occurs. Train a few of the managers and staff members on your team in CPR and basic lifesaving skills. It would help if you prepare your team members for what to expect at a BLS certification course so that they can get the most out of the experience. When you have employees who can react quickly in an emergency, you have less to worry about overall.
When you put these general workplace safety tips to implement into practice, you can make everyone safer while on the job. This peace of mind will make for a more productive, effective, and positive work space for everyone.
