Assessing the Slip Resistence of Flooring

Slips and falls are a major cause of injuries in the workplace. This paper reviews the basic principles of friction for assessing the slip resistence of flooring, factors that affect traction on walkway surfaces, and related traesholds of safety. Most common slip meters used in Europe, for laboratory or in-situ measurements, are presented.
