Safety is very important during floor maintenance, for both the person doing the cleaning and especially for people walking in the area being cleaned. Slips and falls can happen in a second and can be very dangerous, causing broken bones, head injuries or worse. The proper use of floor signs, as well as following correct cleaning procedures, can reduce the risks of injury. Always wear the appropriate personal protective equipment.
