Here you can learn about gripACTion’s services and how they provides solutions for slippery tiles, floors, stairs and ramps.
WorkCover tell us that slip/fall injuries are estimated to cost $1.5 billion per annum. There are literally thousands of workplace incidents per year, and this doesn’t include those that don’t result in an injury . . . but potentially could have.
Add to this the thousands of slip/fall injuries among older persons, people with disabilities and the general public each year.
WorkCover statistics show that slip/fall injuries are the No. #2 accident problem in the workplace. It is for reasons like this that Workers Compensation premiums are on the increase, and skyrocket for any business that experiences slip/fall claims.
In fact, WorkCover legislation requires an employer to “provide and maintain so far as practicable for employees a working environment that is safe and without risks to health”.
Recent trends have also increased business liability insurance premiums. People are becoming more litigious; they are seeking legal remedies with more frequency, and juries are returning larger verdicts.
We are always reminded of the slip/fall problem when we see the signs “CAUTION, SLIPPERY WHEN WET” and we’ve all experienced or had near slip/fall accidents ourselves.
