Parking lots don’t normally scream high-risk areas, but they do present hazards to pedestrians, drivers, property owners, and personal safety concerns, especially when it is dark. The National Safety Council’s Journal of Safety Research reported 2,057 work-related deaths on company parking lots over a 10-year period. That averages 205 deaths per year in parking lots! Pedestrians and drivers should view parking lots as if they were streets and intersections. ClickSafety offers safety tips for personal, property, pedestrian, and drivers to follow when using parking lots.

Encourage your team members to practice parking lot safety with this safety bulletin that you can download and display around the workplace.
