Causes of Slip and Fall Injuries
In most cases, a slip and fall injury occurs when the floor, street, driveway, or other public space isn’t properly maintained. Neglect can lead to a wide variety of hazards in both indoor and outdoor areas. Almost all property insurance covers the cost of slip and fall injuries to visitors. Slip and fall accidents commonly occur due to numerous circumstances, including:
Debris, such as fallen branches in lawns, items in aisles, and trash on the ground, create a severe risk for guests.
Rainwater and leaks can both cause slip and fall injuries. During a rainstorm, rainwater can be tracked inside, creating a slippery entryway. Leaky pipes and freezer units can create an unexpected and dangerous hazard.
If a residential property has steep stairs, unmarked drops, or uneven walkways, it can cause injury due to slip and falls.
The home or business you're visiting has a responsibility to ensure it is properly maintained. Loose safety rails or stair steps can cause significant injuries.
