Cut root trees can be a serious fire hazard. Make sure the needles are cleaned up, the tree is watered, and disposed of when it’s dry. Fire codes often prohibit cut root trees in areas where groups of people assemble unless the building has approved sprinklers.

Just like smoking, lit candles have no place near machinery or chemicals (and should really just stay home altogether).

If you’re hosting a holiday party, keep in mind driving and alcohol. Designated drivers ensure your employees will be able to enjoy holidays in years to come.

The holidays can be a stressful time for your employees. Be mindful of external pressures during this time of year.

For our dealer friends, make sure the decorations in your showroom are “child friendly.” Avoid decorations that have a breaking, choking, or electrical hazard close to the ground
