The safety policy clearly mentioned that the wet floor should have a signage board with “Wet floor, Mind your steps” clearly mentioned on it. There was no such signage board in the work floor. The safety policy also clearly mentioned that no worker should be allowed to enter the workplace without the helmet even if the worker is not working on the machine. There were many workers who were working without helmets on dangerous machines.
