With winter weather comes a heightened risk for slips, trips, and falls in your facility. These incidents can happen year-round, but snow, ice, and slush can raise the risks for building occupants and guests. "I would contend that well over 80% of our claim counts for commercial or industrial properties are related to a slip, trip, and fall incident, though it doesn't equate to 80% of our claims dollars," says Brian Gerritsen, senior director of casualty product management/general liability for Fireman's Fund Insurance Company. "You'd be surprised how many claims we see where a spill of water went unnoticed by the facilities manager or maintenance crew and someone slipped on it." Protect your organization and assets year-round with a smart approach to safety.
