Why the Holiday Period Is the Best Time to Upgrade Floor Safety

For Schools, Healthcare & Retail Facilities 

The holiday period is often quieter for many organisations — with reduced staff numbers, lower foot traffic, or full shutdowns. While it may feel like a pause in operations, it’s actually the most strategic time to address floor safety upgrades. 

For schools, healthcare facilities, and retail environments, holiday downtime provides the ideal opportunity to improve slip resistance, reduce risk, and start the new year compliant and protected. 

 

Upgrade Safety With Minimal Disruption 

One of the biggest barriers to safety upgrades is operational disruption. During holiday periods: 

  • Schools are closed for term breaks 

  • Healthcare facilities experience reduced elective activity 

  • Retail stores operate at lower foot traffic or close temporarily 

This makes it easier to complete floor safety treatments without interrupting learning, patient care, or customer experience. 

 

Start the New Year Safer and Compliant 

Slip, trip and fall incidents remain one of the leading causes of workplace injuries and liability claims across all industries. 

Upgrading floor safety during the holidays helps: 

  • Reduce the risk of incidents before normal operations resume 

  • Support compliance with Australian safety standards 

  • Demonstrate proactive duty of care 

Prevention during downtime avoids reactive fixes later. 

 

🏫 Schools 

School holidays provide unrestricted access to: 

  • Classrooms and corridors 

  • Toilets, change rooms and halls 

  • Entry points and undercover areas 

Treating floors during the break ensures a safer environment for students, staff, and visitors when the new term begins. 

 

🏥 Healthcare Facilities 

Healthcare settings demand the highest safety standards. Holiday periods allow: 

  • Safer treatment of corridors, wet areas, and bathrooms 

  • Reduced disruption to patients and staff 

  • Proactive risk management for high-risk areas 

Improved floor safety helps reduce staff injuries and patient falls. 

 

🛍️ Retail Environments 

Retailers face high slip risks due to: 

  • Wet entryways 

  • Polished or tiled floors 

  • Heavy foot traffic 

Upgrading floor safety during quieter holiday periods helps protect customers, staff, and your business before peak trade resumes. 

 

Reduce Risk Even When Sites Are Closed 

Even during closures, slip hazards can increase due to: 

  • Moisture and humidity 

  • Cleaning residue 

  • Surface wear 

Addressing these risks while sites are quiet allows for more thorough and effective treatment. 

 

Long-Lasting Safety Without Changing Floor Appearance 

Floor Safe treatments: 

  • Improve slip resistance without coatings 

  • Do not alter floor appearance 

  • Require minimal downtime 

  • Are suitable for tiles, concrete, stone and vinyl 

This makes them ideal for environments where both safety and aesthetics matter. 

 

A Smart Investment With Long-Term Protection 

Upgrading floor safety during the holiday period: 

  • Reduces workplace injuries 

  • Lowers liability and insurance risks 

  • Protects staff, students, patients and customers 

  • Ensures compliance before operations resume 

It’s a practical, preventative investment with lasting benefits. 

 

Use Holiday Downtime Wisely 

Rather than postponing safety upgrades, the holiday period offers the perfect window to prepare your facility for the year ahead. 

Safer floors now mean fewer risks later.
