Don't Forget To Keep Your Team Safe
While you can't be blamed for planning multiple visits to some of these upcoming events which can hugely benefit your restaurant, don't forget to make sure you and your team are always safe. Encourage them to wear appropriate footwear which will make sure they are comfortable and reduce the risk of slips, trips and falls - the most common workplace accidents. To help them wear shoes that will get them home safely, purchase footwear that surpasses minimum ISO standards.
