Is my employer liable if I trip over wires left on the floor?

 

[Ed Marshall]

Employers should take reasonable steps to keep walkways clear and free of tripping hazards. If wires were left out in breach of health and safety standards, and this caused your injury, you may have grounds to claim. Photographic evidence and incident reports are often critical.
