FAQs

Who needs slip, trip and fall training?

Slip, trip and fall training suits every worker, because these hazards appear in offices, warehouses, kitchens, plants and parking lots. The 4-minute English music video uses custom lyrics inspired by the song Satisfaction. It works well as a safety meeting opener or a quick refresher for experienced crews.

Which OSHA standard addresses slip and trip hazards?

OSHA's walking-working surfaces standard, 29 CFR 1910.22, requires floors and walkways to be kept clean, orderly and, where feasible, dry. Surfaces must be free of hazards such as spills, sharp objects and loose boards. Ladder requirements appear in 29 CFR 1910.23, and construction sites follow 29 CFR 1926.

What causes most slips, trips and falls at work?

Most slips, trips and falls at work come from wet or contaminated floors, clutter in walkways, poor lighting and unsuitable footwear. Behavior matters too. Running, reading a phone while walking, and carrying loads that block vision all raise the risk. So does standing on chairs or boxes instead of a ladder.

How do you prevent slips, trips and falls at work?

Preventing slips, trips and falls at work starts with good housekeeping: clean spills immediately, keep aisles clear and route cords away from walkways. Wear slip-resistant shoes, watch where you are going, walk rather than run, and use the right ladder for any work above floor level.
