Winter brings more than just snow; it brings increased risk of workplace injuries and workers’ compensation claims. From icy walkways to cold-stressed employees, the winter months pose unique challenges for employers. For small and mid-sized businesses, these incidents can mean costly claims, legal exposure, and lost productivity.

Whether you operate a retail storefront, warehouse, or field-based team, we help ensure your business remains safe, compliant, and protected this winter. Contact True PEO today to prepare your workplace before the next storm hits.
As temperatures drop, workplace risks rise—especially when it comes to slips, trips, and falls. Winter is one of the busiest times of year for workers’ compensation claims. Snow and ice create hazards in parking lots, sidewalks, loading docks, and entryways. Seasonal fatigue, wet floors, and colder indoor environments only increase the likelihood of injury.
Most businesses underestimate how dramatically the winter season affects safety. But OSHA reports show that cold-related accidents spike from November through February. Without a clear safety plan, you could be left with employee injuries, costly claims, and compliance violations.
Companies with 30–300 employees often don’t have the internal bandwidth to manage seasonal risk planning. That’s where True PEO steps in.
We help you take a proactive approach by:
We assess physical worksites for snow, ice, lighting, and slip/trip hazards before they lead to injuries.
From proper footwear to safe snow removal protocols, our training materials help employees and supervisors prevent accidents.
We make sure all incident reporting, safety logs, and claims paperwork are accurate and on time—so you’re never caught off guard.
If an injury does happen, we help guide your team through the claims process to avoid delays, errors, or penalties.
True PEO combines risk management with HR and workers’ compensation services so your team can stay focused on operations—not insurance paperwork.
Winter injuries don’t just hurt your team—they can hurt your business. Even one workplace injury can lead to:
