What you'll learn

Identify slip, trip and fall hazards.
Recall prevention strategies for reducing slips, trips and falls.

Description

Slips, trips, and falls are the leading cause of work-related accidents in the United States, accounting for more than 200,000 reported injuries and over 700 fatalities every year — making them the second leading cause of workplace deaths, behind only motor vehicle accidents. These incidents occur across every industry and job function, and while they are often dismissed as minor hazards, the consequences can include serious injury, long-term disability, and significant costs to employers in workers' compensation claims, lost productivity, and liability exposure. This course provides employees and employers with a clear understanding of the conditions and behaviors that cause slips, trips, and falls — and the straightforward, practical steps that can be taken to prevent them.
 
 Learners will identify the most common hazardous conditions that contribute to slip, trip, and fall incidents in the workplace, including wet or uneven surfaces, poor lighting, cluttered walkways, and improper footwear. The course also addresses hazardous work practices and behavioral risk factors that increase the likelihood of a fall. A dedicated section on prevention strategies gives both employees and supervisors actionable steps to recognize, report, and eliminate hazards before an incident occurs.
 
 Upon completion, employees will be equipped to identify fall hazards in their work environment and apply proven prevention strategies to keep themselves and their colleagues safe.

Our Story: From Service Members to Service Providers

Evolve eLearning Solutions started in 2003 with a simple observation: compliance training didn’t have to be painful. Founded by veterans of the United States Marine Corps and Navy, we brought a service-first mentality to an industry that often felt like an afterthought.

In the military, training isn’t optional—it’s how you stay mission-ready. We saw organizations struggling with the same challenge: keeping teams trained, compliant, and confident without derailing daily operations. The solutions available were either overpriced, overcomplicated, or both.

So, we built something different. Training that respects people’s time. Support that actually solves problems. Pricing that makes sense for real budgets. No enterprise sales pitches, no feature bloat—just effective compliance training delivered by people who understand what it means to serve.

Two decades later, that approach hasn’t changed. We’ve grown from a handful of courses to a comprehensive library covering OSHA, HIPAA, HR/EEO, and more. But we’re still the same team that picks up the phone, remembers your name, and treats your compliance challenges like they matter—because they do.
