Provided by: Global Safe Technologies 10/04/2008 - Global Safe Technologies Solves Slippery Surface Liability and OH&S Issues for Vietnamese Restaurant! Global Safe Technologies has sucessfully completed a variety of anti slip treatments on various surfaces and stairs for the award winning Red Lantern Vietnamese restaurant in Surrey Hills, Sydney. Restaurant management was very concerned about public safety at the restaurant entrance and employee safety at the restaurant kitchen and serving areas. They called on Global Safe Technologies to assess the situation and report back to them. After reviewing the complimentary Floor Safety Inspection report, managment decided to go ahead with all the recommendations. The Safe Solution micro etching anti slip treatment was used on the external tiled entrance surface. Black and yellow Safe Grip stair nosing now provide a long lasting anti slip surface both on the wooden and tiled stairs and highlights the edge of the artificial external floor. As this entrance area is shared between the occupants of the unit and restaurant staff and patrons, the restaurant has alsoprovided additional public safety for the occupants of the building. In the kitchen 50 mm wide and 100 mm wide Safe Grip non slip strips were employed, depending on the likely contamination of the surface and contaminant type. As the chef’s cooking area is considered to be the highest risk sutuation, the 50 mm strips were used. This combination of various strips provided the restaurant with a fully OH&S compliant and safe floor surface and gave them the most cost effective solution. The restaurant also intends to take up the industry unique riskmanagement program called the Floor Safety Maintenance Program©, which is offered to them at No Additional Cost.
