Slip and fall accidents remain one of the most pervasive and costly risks for businesses and employees. In 2020, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reported 211,640 injury cases involving falls, slips, and trips — with many more unreported. Of the reported incidents, 805 have tragically ended in fatalities, and 20% result in three or more days of missed work.1
According to the 2021 Liberty Mutual Workplace Safety Index, more than 33% of the top 10 most disabling workplace injuries are caused by falls, slips, and trips.2 These injuries translate into billions of dollars in lost revenue. The combined impact of falls, slips, and trips costs businesses more than $19 billion annually. That’s a cost no business can afford.
