Did You Know...

Slips, trips, and falls are the causes of most general industry accidents. They comprise 15 percent of all accidental deaths, 12,000 per year, and are second only to motor vehicles as a cause of fatalities. OSHA standards for walking and working surfaces apply to all permanent job sites, except for domestic, mining, or agricultural settings. Annually, about 33,000 people suffer disabling injuries from falling on stairs.

Liabilities loom with high price tags. According to Jury Verdict Research (Horsham, Pa.), if you are sued for a slip-and-fall accident, there is a 44 percent chance that a jury will award damages against you. The mean award for a slip-and-fall jury verdict is more than $220,000. Clearly, it pays to manage the risks of these perils.
