Slips, trips, and falls are a major cause of injuries!
Slips, Trips
and Falls
2. According to OSHA,
slips, trips and falls cause
15% of all accidental
deaths, second only to
motor vehicles.
3. How do so many slips, trips
and falls happen?
Some injuries occur from falls
from heights like a ladder or
building. However, most injuries
occur while simply walking. HOW?
4. IRREGULAR SURFACES
can make walking difficult. Gravel,
uneven sidewalks and rough terrain
means people need to literally
watch where they’re walking.
5. SLICK SURFACES
and the lack of proper signage
is the perfect recipe for a slip,
trip or fall.
6. STAIRS
are another potential challenge.
Tall steps, short steps and those
with a smaller tread depth can
literally trip people up.
8. Unfortunately getting from point A to point B on your own two feet can’t always
be accomplished on perfectly level sidewalks and non-slick surfaces, so what can
you do? Here are some tips to reduce your risk of slipping, tripping or falling.
Just like driving,
scan your “road”
for potential
hazards and be
aware of others.
Slow down when
making turns,
coming around
corners or when you
have limited visibility.
If possible,
create a detour
route around
slick areas.
When taking
the stairs,
always use
the handrail.

9. What’s the #1
thing you can do
prevent a slip,
trip or fall?
Wear proper footwear! Some
experts believe that up to half
of all accidents can be easily
prevented by simply wearing
the right shoes.
