Course Overview

Did you know that Slips, Trips, and Falls make up about 25% of all US work related injuries? These particular injuries are not always minor. In fact, slips, trips, and falls are the second leading cause of fatalities in the workplace and account for over 1 million emergency room visits annually.

Slips occur when there is a loss of balance caused by too little friction between your feet and the surface you walk or work on. Slips are one of the most common causes of falls. Trips occur when your foot strikes or hits an object which causes you to lose your balance. Trips are another common cause of falls. Falls occur when the body shifts too far from the center of balance, usually caused by slips or trips.

Topics include: 

  • Housekeeping
  • Lighting 
  • Walking Surfaces 
  • Stairs and Ladders 
  • Material Handling
  • Footwear

No Worries. Here's Some Helpful Info.

Slips, trips, and falls account for about 25% of all US work-related injuries.
The six factors are housekeeping, lighting, walking surfaces, stairs and ladders, material handling and footwear.
Good housekeeping practices, such as securing mats, cleaning up spills immediately, placing warning signs in wet areas, and keeping walkways clear of obstructions, help prevent slips, trips, and falls.
To prevent falls when using a ladder, inspect the ladder for damage before use. Make sure to maintain three points of contact. Ensure the ladder is placed on a level, non-slip surface. Also, use cones to signal work in high-traffic areas.
Proper footwear provides adequate traction and support. Slip-resistant shoes with the correct tread design and material are crucial for preventing accidents in different work environments.
