Winter Weather

Winter safety is a critical consideration as the colder months introduce unique risks that can impact workers’ health, productivity, and overall workplace operations. It is essential to recognise that winter conditions not only introduce new hazards but can also exacerbate existing risks, increasing both the likelihood and severity of incidents. Effective winter risk management helps to ensure safer working environments throughout the season.


By the end of this course, learners will be able to:

  • Understand the unique health and safety risks associated with winter conditions.
  • Recognise how cold, wet, and icy environments can intensify existing workplace hazards.
  • Identify practical measures to reduce the likelihood and severity of winter-related incidents.
  • Apply effective strategies to maintain health, safety, and productivity during the winter months.
  • Support the creation of winter-specific risk assessments and emergency response plans.
