Fall accidents can cause serious harm
One of the most common pieces of misinformation circulating about trip and fall and slip and fall accidents is they do not result in serious injuries or lasting harm. In fact, a Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) study on the costs associated with injuries sustained in 2014 revealed that falls were responsible for 37 percent of the total costs treated in emergency rooms — even more than transportation-related injuries from auto accidents.* This figure shows just how dangerous trip and fall accidents can be, particularly to young children and elderly adults, who are far more likely to be seriously hurt.

Trip and fall accidents can be extremely dangerous for those who unexpectedly catch their feet on uneven surfaces. These accidents are much more likely to occur when any of the following conditions exist:
- Broken pavement
- Cracked sidewalks
- Unmarked curbs and stairs
- Potholes
- Uneven rugs and carpets
- Power cords
