There has been a notable change to more autumnal weather over the last few days, with darker mornings and evenings, and fog and ground frost forecast in some areas before the end of the month.  It is important that we take extra care when driving or out on foot over the coming months.

Slips, trips and falls have accounted for one third of our TRIs this year and nearly half of our LTIs, with injuries ranging from a broken leg and fractured wrist to chipped bones in the ankle.  Site teams are encouraged to review the attached Winter Checklist (or in the download section of the UK News website) to ensure they are well prepared and to avoid adding to the 6 LTIs we have suffered in the last 12 months as a result of slips, trips and falls.
