Falls often result in some degree of significant personal injury. The National Safety Council revealed that in 2021 nearly 7 million people were treated in hospitals for fall related injuries, many culminating in death or disabilities. We are often called upon to investigate sites where falls have occurred and to determine causation (if applicable). Most often we find safety hazards including slippery floors, hazardous changes in level, lack of mandatory handrails, and the hazardous and unnecessary presence of wheelstops in parking lots.
