Most of our activities take place above ground level. In fact, many occur between 1 and 2 metres above the ground and frequently much higher........This puts the head in the firing line of many potential hazards.
Hazards that include:
• Falling objects
• Slips, trips and falls
• Protrusions
• Flying objects
• Toxic fumes
• Noise levels
• Obstructed vision
• Chemical splashes
• Inadequate lighting
• Long hair
Types of injuries include:
• Permanent disfigurement
• Deafness
• Blindness
• Loss of mobility
• Loss of control of bodily functions
• Mental retardation

The preventative measures that need to be addressed are covered in detail. A head injury could be the first, the worst and last injury you will ever receive.
