The Best Janitorial Services Dallas Will Help Prevent Slip and Fall Lawsuits

There is nothing more nightmarish for business owners or office managers than being faced with a costly lawsuit because of an accident on the jobsite as the ultimate result of cutting corners. The good old slip and fall accident is among the things that you can most easily avoid provided that you follow the useful tips from people who have been there and experienced that before you.

Just so you know, the bottom line is not really the only thing that could get a beating after an accident happens. Based on studies, it has been revealed that trips, falls, and slips in any workplace can also be awful for the business in terms of worker injuries, lower morale, decreased worker productivity, and worse, even deaths.

The good news is that safety and efficiency could work together. You just need to include these two in your regular operations plan so you could literally protect not only your own body but also the body of all members of your staff.

Important Facts to Consider

  • The fatalities because of falls are almost evenly divided between women and men alike.
  • Falls make up for only 5% of fatalities among women that are related to the job as compared to the 11% among men.
  • But, more women are going to experience or are involved in slip and fall accidents.
  • Flooring materials and floors have a direct contribution to over 2 million fall injuries on a yearly basis.
  • Fall injuries make up for more than 8 million visits to the hospital emergency rooms that represent the primary reason of the visits. Falls and slips make up for more than 1 million visits or up to 12% of all the falls.
  • Medical and compensation costs that are related to slip and fall accidents among employees are around $70 billion every year.
  • Supermarkets and retail shops spend up to $450 million on an annual basis just to defend against fall and slip claims.

The Solution Lies in the Solution

Experts in walkways and flooring all agree that correct maintenance and cleaning is the most impactful and crucial strategy that could be done to lower the risks of these accidents. Different factors the cleaning equipment and tools, dilution methods, trusted cleaning solutions, and other cleaning procedures including alerts and signage are some of the initial recommendations.
