Many trips, slips, and falls that happen in the workplace are highly avoidable and could be prevented by implementing some simple standards in the workplace:
1. Make sure all drawers to desks and filing cabinets are completely closed when not being used.
2. Keep electrical wires, extension cords, and phone lines out of high foot-traffic areas.
3. Always post a sign or warning when a floor is at risk of being slippery as the result of weather, a spill, or cleaning.
