Free ice cleats available through EHSRM office
March 30, 2021
Slip, trip and fall injuries tend to be UAF’s most frequently reported accident. To
help prevent these injuries, and the associated insurance costs, Environmental Health,
Safety and Risk Management offers free ice cleats to all employees.
These traction devices slip over existing footwear and are very effective at helping
prevent falls on ice and snow. Several sizes are available to accommodate most shoes
or boots.
Fairbanks-area employees can contact the EHSRM office at 474-5413, or stop by 825 Alumni Drive to get their free pair. Rural campuses can order a small
number of ice cleats for their employees directly from EHSRM, or for a larger amount,
may order from elsewhere and be reimbursed through the Loss Prevention Program. You
