Slip and Trip Hazards - ✔️✔️Poor housekeeping creates additional slip and trip
hazards. Employers are responsible for maintaining the work area, but you have a

some slip and trip hazards which cannot be removed, and workers must use the
correct footwear and be aware of their surroundings in order to remain safe. The
greater the traction the footwear provides, the less likely you are to slip while
walking.
