The prevention of slips, trips, and falls is extremely important. Most workers worldwide get injured due to fall incidents which cause a lot of time-loss injuries and end up costing the companies loss of income.
Slips happen where there is too little friction or traction between the footwear and the walking surface.
Common causes of slips are
- wet or oily surfaces
- occasional spills
- weather hazards
- loose, unanchored rugs or mats
- flooring or other walking surfaces that do not have the same degree of traction in all areas
Trips happen when your foot collides (strikes, hits) an object causing you to lose balance and eventually fall.
Common causes of slips, trips, and falls are
- obstructed view
- poor lighting
- clutter in your way
- wrinkled carpeting
- uncovered cables
- bottom drawers not being closed
- uneven (steps, thresholds) walking surfaces
