Healthcare Incidence Rates Are 90% Greater Than All Other Private Industries Combined
The healthcare industry is no stranger to long days and nights and busy, fast-paced shifts. Each day, hospital employees including doctors, nurses, maintenance staff, medical technicians, building and grounds staff, food service workers, laundry, housekeeping, and administrative personnel are exposed to many forms of safety hazards. Workplace hazards your teams face include slippery floors, lack of signage, stairs and kitchen restaurants. Hazards such as these can cause minor to severe injuries, or worse – a fatality. The accelerated pace and continuous movements associated within hospitals 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. Accident prevention, made possible with our hospital work safety shoe program, is the leading method for avoiding these costs and improving profitability.​
