A broken ankle due to a slippery floor.
A back sprain from a high fall.
A sprained wrist from an unfortunate trip.
Slips and trips in the workplace are no laughing matter. Something as seemingly minor and innocent as slipping on a wet floor has the potential to turn into a much greater incident, possibly even a workers’ compensation claim if there is an injury involved.
While there is no way to prevent every workplace injury, there are numerous ways to reduce risk and build a strong workplace safety culture.
