SLIPPERY AND DEFECTIVE FLOORS

Have you slipped or tripped at work due to a substance or the very construction of the surface of the floor being unsafe or defective causing Personal Injury?  We can help, providing your accident is recorded within the accident book and the cause of the slip or trip can be established.

In accordance with the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 your employers have an obligation, as far as reasonably practicable, to keep traffic routes (ie. floor and the surfaces of them) free from obstructions, and from any article or substance which may cause a person to slip, trip or fall.  They also have a strict duty to ensure that the floor is of a safe and sound construction and is suitable for the usage of the area.  Therefore it should not be defective in any way.

There are many things to consider in this area, which of course sounds relatively straight forward. However our experience shows that this is not the case. Our Expert Personal Injury Solicitors, with over 20 years experience, will be sure to progress your claim for Personal Injury in the quickest possible time.
