Why do slips, trips and falls stubbornly remain the number one cause of workplace accidents, even in high-risk industries that are otherwise strong on safety? The answer lies in both human behaviour and practical action, and that’s exactly what Daryl Wake of Dekra and I explore together.

Daryl brings fresh behavioural data gathered across industries, showing how and why people really slip, trip and fall, and the critical role of leadership and culture. I then take the baton to share a roadmap of proven, practical steps you can implement immediately to cut incidents, defend claims, and build a safer, stronger organisation.

Highlights include:

• Behavioural safety insights: why a few key habits cause most accidents
• Data in action: patterns behind 7,500+ workplace observations
• Leadership’s role: culture, influence and frontline engagement
• Practical tools: how to prevent slips and trips in real-world settings
• The five mistakes organisations make: and how to avoid them
• Trips vs slips: why they’re different and need different solutions
• Measuring risk: the science of slip testing and pendulum values
• Free resources: download my book Prevent Slip Accidents and take the slip risk scorecard self-assessment
