Safety engineers and insurance companies recognize the immense responsibility of reducing the exposure of areas where such accidents occur. Statistics prove the reality of their concern.
- 12% of all work related deaths are the result of slips and falls.
- Deaths by slips and falls rank second only to motor vehicle deaths in the workplace.
- Work related accidents in the United States cost 34.8 billion annually.
- Over 300,000 disabling injuries and deaths are caused annually by slips and falls.
- Costs in compensation (wages and medical) as a result of slipping accidents average $6,717 per occurrence, or 41% more than the average of all other accidents.
Through proper precautions most slipping accidents can be avoided. But when a hazardous situation is ignored, and a slipping injury happens, the resulting liability can mean severe repercussions for the responsible party.
