Slip and fall accidents cause more than 1 million hospital visits a year. They are also one of the leading causes of compensation claims. There’s a whole laundry list of statistics on how much they cost, but perhaps the only thing more important than knowing how costly they can get is knowing the top causes of slips, trips, and falls in the workplace so you know exactly how to prevent them.
So, you probably already know that your smartphone has more germs than your toilet seat, but that doesn’t mean toilets aren’t some of the germiest surfaces in a restroom. Toilets, with all their exposure to – foremost of all – fecal matter, along with a host of other bodily fluids, can house bacteria like the dreaded Staphylococcus and Salmonella bacteria.
It’s nothing new in the marketing world that color symbolism plays a huge role in company branding. This is because each color invites very specific emotions from individuals based on their culture and associations.

How do you know when it’s time to replace your floor mats?
Commercial mats, whether we’re talking about the dust-busting entrance mats or the ergonomic, all-important anti-fatigue mats in your work room, will eventually reach the absolute end of their wear-and-tear capacity. And knowing when to replace them is as important as making the first purchase.
There’s no denying it – the holidays are here! And New Jersey is teeming with good ol’ holiday fun.

Imagine that your job requires you to stand on your feet for hours on end every single day, five days a week.
This kind of working condition is tough, not just on the legs but also on the motivation of employees. Unfortunately, this is everyday reality for many workers – especially for those working in the hospitality, food service, healthcare, and manufacturing industries.
Additionally, these physically straining jobs also have a negative effect on employee productivity. Poor flooring coupled with long hours of being on one’s feet are the perfect formula for lower extremity injuries and long-term back, leg, and hip problems.
But it doesn’t have to be this way. There’s one simple way to combat fatigue at your business and improve the conditions of the workplace: anti-fatigue mats.
You may know where your shoes have been, but do you always know what they’ve stepped in?

Your 10,000 daily steps aren’t all that clean and healthy, are they?
