Slips And Falls Are The #1 Cause Of Workplace Accidents In Schools

The education system is no stranger to the daily hustle and bustle. Each day, your faculty, staff and students are exposed to safety hazards in the form of wet floors, crowded hallways, uneven floors and sidewalks and other dangers. Workplace hazards such as these can cause minor to severe injuries, or worse – a fatality. The accelerated pace and continuous movements associated with school environments keep your employees at risk of slip and fall accidents. Hazardous work conditions further expose your team to life-threatening dangers and increase the likelihood that a slip-and-fall related accident or workplace injury will occur.

Workplace Injuries Impact Profitability

The effects of workplace injuries can be devastating for the injured employee, your company and all other parties involved. With each accident that occurs, your business incurs both direct and indirect costs that ultimately impact your company’s bottom line and profitability. Direct and indirect costs include lawsuits, workers’ compensation claims, damaged equipment and lowered employee morale – each of which contribute to the over $2 billion spent annually on food service accidents and recovery. Accident prevention is the leading method for avoiding these costs and improving profitability. ​

School Accident Prevention    

Schools are busy places. Faculty, custodial, maintenance, cafeteria and security staff are always on the move across campus, navigating crowded hallways, slippery floors, and other hazards. It’s no wonder slips and falls are the top cause of workplace accidents in schools! Not only can these accidents result in injuries, but they can also result in lawsuits, worker’s compensation claims, and other direct and indirect costs to the school. The good news is that many of these accidents are avoidable with a managed safety footwear program from Shoes For Crews.

As the leader in slip-resistant footwear since 1984, Shoes For Crews knows safety. Our slip-resistant footwear undergoes rigorous testing and carries a high Coefficient of Friction (COF) score — a measurement of outsole friction. This score has been tested and confirmed by independent laboratories using internationally accepted testing methods. Staff and faculty equipped with our patented slip-resistant shoes enjoy maximum traction on slippery floors.

Our managed safety footwear program for schools makes it easy for administrators and safety managers to take proactive steps toward preventing slips and falls in schools. A Shoes For Crews safety expert will help design and administer your customized program, helping create awareness, drive adoption, and report on participation and ROI. 

When you partner with Shoes For Crews, you reduce injuries caused by slips and falls in school by up to 67%.

Slip and fall accidents in schools are no joke. If school staff are injured from a slip and fall accident at school, they may file a claim, and the school may be liable for damages.

Our school safety shoe program can help avoid injuries caused by slippery floors. We offer easy online ordering, allowing school staff to select comfortable and stylish shoes featuring our exclusive slip-resistant outsole. Our safety footwear undergoes ASTM-compliant testing methods to closely simulate real-life environments, including floors contaminated by water, oil, soap, grease, and more. Shoes For Crews offers a wide variety of styles, from the best running shoe silhouettes to avoid injury to dressy leather styles. With over 250 styles, finding the perfect pair has never been simpler.
