Are your floors safe?... If you own a business or are responsible for the safety of your customers and staff, it is imperative that you know if your floor surfaces represent a slip risk in both dry and wet conditions. A floor that is safe in dry conditions can become extremely dangerous when wet, leaving you liable to prosecution if a person slips.

Every three minutes in the UK alone there is a serious injury caused by a slip. Slipping and tripping are the biggest cause's of accidents so why wait for a slip or trip accident to happen in or around a property you own or are responsible for?

Being due diligent and pro-active when it comes to slippery floors is not only a sensible practice but it is what both the Spanish and European regulations demand!
