Some tips from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration of the United States Department of Labor to avoid slip, trip, and fall injuries include:
- Wear appropriate shoes for the job or task. This includes non-slip shoes.
- Avoid wearing sandals or open toe shoes, high heels, or shoes made out of canvas. They do not provide protection and high heels may promote slip injuries.
- For wet processes wear non-slip overshoe covers.
- Wipe up spills immediately.
- Clean or pick up food spills any other items from floors as soon as possible.
- Keep walkways free from clutter.
