Workplace slips are a common workplace injury. While the majority of slips result in little more than bruising, some may lead to more serious injuries, which may be prevented if appropriate preventative measures are adopted. Making sure the floor surface provides adequate slip resistance is essential and it's important to know how slippery your floor actually is.
We can offer slip testing as part of a comprehensive slip risk management review, helping to identify slip hazards at your premises and determining how to reduce the risk of potential losses occurring.
Contact your Aviva Risk Consultant who can offer this service as part of a dedicated on-site slip risk management review.
