Understanding risks and hazards is fundamental to an effective risk management process. CityReporter provides a comprehensive solution for developing a reporting system and monitoring conditions, enabling timely performance evaluations.
Introduction
In the ever-evolving landscape of asset and facility management, technology continues to drive transformative changes. One such innovation is the integration of QR (Quick Response) codes, offering efficient and convenient solutions across various industries. At CityReporter, we recently introduced a groundbreaking QR Code integration for our Asset Tracking and Facility Inspection Modules, revolutionizing the way local government and organizations manage their assets and facilities.
Our software enables local governments to more easily track, improve, and resolve efficiency and risk management issues in their parks and playgrounds.
In Canada, 2,500 children below 14 years old are hospitalized yearly for serious playground fall injuries. Studies show that falls exceeding 1.5-2m in height increase the likelihood of incurring an injury, and the risk of severe injury doubles on playgrounds using non-recommended or ill-maintained surfaces.
Park and playground management is a crucial aspect of ensuring the safety and enjoyment of public spaces. Whether it's a city park, a school playground, a municipal playground, or a national park, it's important to adhere to laws and regulations and properly maintain and inspect the facilities to minimize risks and prevent injuries.
Children have learned through playing with nature since the beginning of time, climbing trees, making tree houses, running through leaves, and digging in the sand. Modern thinking is that natural play of this kind should be encouraged as it contributes to overall fitness, coordination, and self-discipline. It also helps with concentration, emotional development, and imagination. There are also benefits to exploring nature during lessons or even just holding a lesson in a pleasant natural environment.
Duty of care is the responsibility of a person or institution to avoid acts or omissions that could foreseeably cause harm to others. Failure to provide an adequate standard of care may result in legal consequences.
