2010-12-25
CHESHIRE, ENGLAND, December 25, 2010 (Press-News.org) The last few weeks has seen the UK covered in snow, the roads, rails and skies brought to a standstill and severe weather warnings issued across various media channels. At times like this, when the harsh winter sets in, it is important that people take the necessary precautions to insure they are safe and warm.

In the workplace, it is also imperative that employers insure that their workforce is well looked after and in no way at risk. Individuals do need to take it upon themselves to insure their own safety to a certain degree; however, companies also have a responsibility to their employees. Brookes provides an extensive range of work wear that can help keep your workforce looking professional as well as keeping them safe at all times no matter what the environment.

In icy conditions, the first step to preventing unnecessary accidents is to make sure that all employees have the correct work wear.

Footwear is incredibly important. It is vital that workers' feet are kept warm and dry in bitterly cold and wet conditions. It is also important that shoes and boots have proper grip to prevent anyone slipping on the ice.

Gloves are also crucial for anyone working outdoors in a cold environment. Gloves are not only useful for protecting hands from the cold but also, depending on the work being done, for protecting the hands from sparks or corrosive chemicals.

Helmets are a vital piece of kit on any worksite. In the winter months when it may well be darker, wetter and colder during working hours, the risk of accidents happening naturally increases and so, in line with the well known adage, safety first.

In winter months when people are more likely to be working outside after dark the importance of High Vis clothing is paramount, particularly for those working on roads. Night time makes it harder for people to be seen and it is especially hard to see people when there is bad weather too.

With the opportunity to embroider your company logo on all Brookes work wear items from as little as GBP1.10 you can insure your workforce not only feels safe but also feels professional in the workplace. Brookes also gives the option for next day delivery with free delivery on all orders over GBP90 ex. VAT.

Simply put, it is better to be safe than sorry. So, this Christmas, make sure your workforce is safe and happy in the work place with top quality, durable work wear from Brookes.

2010-12-25
Timing can be everything in the music business. The right song at the right time, or the right look in the right place can make or break a career. Strangely enough, the new book Death of a Pop Star from Aplomb Publishing, never intended to have a chapter on Michael Jackson - until his sudden death in the summer of 2009 changed all that. "I had actually been working on the book for about four months and the idea came about after the anniversary of the death of Buddy Holly," says author John William Law. "February 2009 marked the 50th anniversary of the death of Holly ...

Estate Planning During a Time of Uncertainty About the Estate Tax

2010-12-25
Decisions made about the estate tax this year will have ramifications for wealth distribution for years to come. To take one example of the stakes, consider George Steinbrenner, who died in July of 2010 -- the year the estate tax is due to expire. With an estimated net worth of $1.15 billion, his heirs could save up to $500 million in federal estate taxes alone. In 2001, Congress voted to raise the estate tax exemption incrementally. The phase-out ended in repeal of the tax, effective in 2010. Most tax attorneys expected Congress to reinstate the tax before year-end ...

Problems Handling Money May be an Early Clue to Dementia

2010-12-25
Having the capacity to make informed decisions can mean the difference between solvency and financial ruin. Unfortunately, older adults can experience problems in continuing to manage their financial affairs, especially if dementia is involved. These problems also can be compounded because early symptoms of dementia may not be obvious. However, researchers have recently found that confusion over financial matters may be the most predictable early indication of a person's diminishing capacity. "Decisional capacity" refers to the ability to make competent choices about ...

Hospital Safety Still an Issue: Better Medical Care, Not Tort Reform, is the Answer

2010-12-25
Whether for a check-up, injury or major surgery, we expect to leave the hospital in better shape than when we arrived. A recent study in the New England Journal of Medicine, however, is the latest in a series of reports which clearly demonstrates that efforts to improve the safety of our hospitals are failing, resulting in countless injuries and numerous deaths each year. The problem is not unnecessary and groundless medical malpractice lawsuits, but instead poor medical care that is continuing to needlessly harm a significant number of patients each year. The most recent ...
