Every year thousands of restaurant employees are treated at Urgent Care and hospital emergency rooms for burns and other injuries sustained while working in commercial kitchens. Sadly, because of the age group most likely to hold these sort of jobs, a majority of these injured and sometimes permanently scarred employees are only teenagers. Nobody wants for a young person under their supervision to be hurt, but during the course of daily duties in the kitchen, it seems almost unavoidable that some accidents will occur. Fortunately FiltaFry offers a solution. Using Filta’s oil micro-filtration and fryer management service can drastically reduce the chances of employee injury due to oil burns or slip and fall type accidents in a commercial kitchen.
Why Go Pro?
Changing out oil and basic fryer cleaning and maintenance duties are amongst the least desirable tasks in restaurants and other commercial kitchens. As such, these jobs are most often handed off to the younger, newer employees. Most of these young people lack the knowledge and experience to do the job safely and effectively. Furthermore, many of these young people fail to see the importance of the task at hand and lack the motivation to do the job right. This sloppy approach greatly increases the chance of injury.
When a business uses a FiltaFry professional to manage and maintain its fryers it takes the risk and burden off of the shoulders of its staff. Not only are employees be relieved of the dangerous and unpleasant task of keeping fryers running smoothly, but owners and managers can rest easy knowing that the work is being done by someone who is highly skilled and motivated to do the best job possible every time. FiltaFry technicians’ attention to detail insures that fryers are not only working optimally, but that hazardous conditions around the fryer are cleaned and removed. Thus, FiltaFry lowers a business’s chances of seeing nasty slip and fall incidents occurring in the kitchen.
Greater Safety Means Greater Savings
When a business improves safety in the workplace there are definite and significant monetary advantages. The average restaurant pays out over $5,000 in damages for slip and fall injuries each year. These accidents are also responsible for a great deal of lost time for employees. By using FiltaFry’s fryer management service an establishment can dramatically reduce the chances of this costly type of incident occurring on their premises.
When a business decreases its number of accident incidents it stands to save money on insurance as well. Insurance agencies offer incentives for safety, often offering up to a 25% rate deduction for businesses that report average or below average numbers of workplace injury claims. This can lead to savings of up to $1,400 on insurance costs each year.
Every business owner and manager wants to create a safer and more pleasant atmosphere for the business’s staff. FiltaFry is an excellent way to help accomplish that dream. FiltaFry can help eliminate nasty, often physically scarring accidents in a commercial kitchen. When FiltaFry assumes the risky duties of fryer care and maintenance, as well as the dangerous task of oil handling, a business knows that they are doing the best thing for their staff. Even better, using FiltaFry can save a business money.
