What does a business owner have to do to ensure that their place of business is not dangerous to foot traffic. Employees and customers deserve to be safe at the workplace, and flooring is a key component in ensuring that there are no injuries. Missouri business owners have the responsibility to ensure that every aspect of the building is in good condition.

There are hundreds of slip and fall accidents each year across Missouri that bring both business owners and victims to court over liability. Its then that a Missouri slip and fall expert witness can really help out.

Slip and Fall Accidents at the Workplace

Slip and fall accidents are extremely common at work, and there are many times when the accident is nobody’s fault. However, when business owners aren’t following through on a floor safety plan for the workplace, people can be put in hazardous situations where the slip and fall accident is a direct result of floor conditions.

Some of the more common floor conditions leading to a slip and fall accident include:

  • Dust and debris
  • Obstacles in walkways
  • Liquid spills
  • Buildup of cleaning products
  • Flooring material defects
  • Poor maintenance or lack of maintenance
  • Improper flooring surface for the tasks
  • Abrupt transition from one material to another

If an accident was a result of owner negligence, the victim may bring about a liability lawsuit to try to recover medical bills, rehabilitation costs, lost wages, and an amount for pain and suffering. Legal teams for both the business owner and the victim often call on Missouri slip and fall expert witnesses to bring clarity and information to a case.
