Walk Safe Program
Injuries due to slips, trips and falls accounted for 20% of WCF's claims and 37% of WCF's claims costs from 2008 to 2012. Falls are usually caused by something in our path that is slippery, loose, uneven, broken, missing, hidden or possibly obscured through distractions. WCF's new Walk Safe Program helps identify and control hazards that cause slips, trips, and falls on walking surfaces and stairs.
