Content includes slip and trip statistics, what the law says and who should report injuries, the 5-step risk assessment, hazard identification, evaluation of risk, and recording and reviewing findings. Practical content covers flooring, cleaning regimes, people and human factors, and footwear - the real causes of slip and trip incidents on most sites.
