"SLIP and FALL" Defense System
Reduce your liability exposure and costs by warning patrons of hazardous footwear!
- There is no government standard for slip resistance for shoes sold to the public.
- High heels, flip-flops, slide-ons, and leather-soled shoes are hazardous.
- It is rare for patrons to slip and fall on liquid when wearing standard tennis shoes or safety shoes. Tennis shoes provide better foot stability and the sole design will displace liquids for proper traction.
- This Footwear Defense process has been utilized to win over 15 "Slip and Fall" Trials and assisted in denying hundreds of claims over the past 20 years, by warning patrons of hazardous footwear
Major Factors considered during Slip, Trip and Fall Lawsuits:
- Failure to exercise ordinary care to protect an invitee from danger?
- Responsible company representative knew or reasonably should have known of the hazardous condition and warn invitee?
- Condition of the property created an unreasonable risk of harm to the invitee?
- Was the failure, breach or negligence the proximate cause of plaintiffs’ injuries?
- Did invitee keep a watchful look-out for potential hazards and take reasonable care?
- Assessment of Comparative Fault (If State Statute Allows)
Purchase High-Quality Dual Warning Signs or High-Quality Outdoor Vinyl Stickers for Existing Signs.
Note: 4-Sided-Caution Cones are highly recommended to warn patrons approaching from all directions.
