Everyone needs to read the workplace Health and Safety policy.
Every person at work, including yourself, have a role to play it making sure everyone stays safe. If you see something that you think is dangerous and could cause an injury then you need to report it so it can be delt with in a timely manner. If it hasn’t been fixed then follow it up.
