Slips, trips, and falls are common injuries. A lot more contributes to  it, such as dim lighting, uneven surfaces, and unfitting footwear. They’re prime safety meeting topics. Your employees must be aware of fall causes and risk factors. Provide them with proper training so they can protect themselves and reduce the chances of a fall.
