SLIPS, TRIPS AND FALLS
account for over half of all reported
injuries, costing employers and organisations
over £300 million pounds per year. The Health
and Safety at work Act 1974 emphasises that
all employers must take steps to control slip
and trip risks
in the workplace.
The Health and Safety at Work 1999 Management
Act (risk assessment) reinforces this requirement.
Regulation 12.92 deals with particular aspects
of suitability which may affect Health and Safety.
These include slipperiness. No floor shall be
slippery (as to its construction) so as to expose
any person to a risk.
