Commercial Kitchen Flooring: Slip and Fall Issues

Do you own or operate a commercial kitchen?  If you do, you know how detrimental a slip and fall can be to your business.  Are you keeping your employees and customers safe with the proper food-grade commercial kitchen flooring?  You may not have had a slip and fall issue in the past, but any owner who has knows the importance of an industrial floor system that can handle the abuse of a commercial kitchen while keeping employees and customers safe. When you combine water, grease, oil and dirt with foot traffic, cramped spaces, and hungry customers, it becomes “when”…not “if” you are going to have a slip and fall issue.  According to the National Floor Safety Institute, the average cost from slip and falls is approximately $22,800.00 per accident, and the average workers compensation claim is approximately $19,000.00.  What is it worth to you to protect yourself from this type of liability?
