Slipping And Tripping Hazards

Injuries Caused By Slipping Or Tripping Hazards

Construction law mandates job site owners, contractors, and subcontractors provide employees with a safe workplace free of slipping and tripping hazards. Construction workers often carry heavy materials and work on dangerous equipment. Failing to clear job sites of debris, grease, ice, and other hazards increases the chance of a severe and life-altering accident.
