Did you know that falls to a lower level are the second leading cause of preventable workplace fatalities? With all of that foot traffic, there is a potential for a fall. Whether it’s walking the factory floor, taking a stroll outside during a break or getting from one meeting to another, we are on our feet at least part of the day. While each of our jobs are different, for most of us, walking is part of your workday. Though they might seem harmless, slips, trips, and falls are the most common hazards we face in the workplace and they can have serious consequences. The second week of national safety month is slips, trips, and falls (June 8-16).
