Under Desk Cable Tidy

Under desk cable tidy

For any office-based business, cable management is a crucial issue that needs to be addressed and requires a pro-active and responsible approach. Our offices today have more electrical equipment and wired appliances than ever before. Today’s standard workstation has a minimum of six cables. During installation these cables are tied and tucked away neatly. However, as time progresses and equipment is replaced or the office is moved around, things quickly get out of hand. In most offices, temporary fixes quickly become permanent. For Instance, a faulty power socket which leads to using an extension lead from the other side of the office. By not addressing these types of issues you’re leaving your company exposed to a potential compensation claim. Unchecked cables are accidents waiting to happen. NM Cabling are here to assist you. Offering various under desk tidy solutions to protect your company and employees.

Why do you need a cable management company?

While health and safety legislations are in place to outline employers' obligations, cables can often present a hazard. Trips lead to 16% of compensation claims, so it's important for businesses to take steps to address this issue. Cable management products are an easy way to do this, and they're usually very affordable and easy to install. By visibly demonstrating a commitment to health and safety, businesses can help create a positive culture around this important issue.

Slips, trips, and falls are a common occurrence in the workplace, with 171,000 self-reported accidents in 2015. This can be a distressing experience for the individual involved, causing long-term absence from work or personal distress. While many of these accidents have no serious consequences, others can be very serious. It is important for workplaces to identify risks and take steps to prevent slips, trips and falls from happening. Some measures that can be taken to reduce the risk of these accidents include improving workplace conditions, providing adequate training for employees, and implementing safety policies and procedures. By doing so, we can help keep our workers safe and prevent potentially life-altering injuries.
