Claiming compensation for a supermarket slip, trip or fall

Supermarket accidents happen all the time, in spite of legislation that places a duty of care on supermarket chains such as Tesco, Asda, Sainsburys and Morrisons. Supermarkets should have robust systems and checks in place to ensure that the rate of accidents is kept as low as possible. Nevertheless, supermarket slips, trips and falls are frequent occurrences, often caused by:

• Unmarked slippery surfaces, such as wet floors
• Items falling off shelves
• Poorly positioned mats at the store’s entrance/exit
• Trip hazards (e.g. boxes and crates) left in customers’ way by staff
• Cables from cleaning machines lying across the shop floor

Did you know?

• Women aged over 60 are the most likely to suffer a supermarket accident, as they tend to be less steady on their feet than younger people and can often struggle to adjust their footing if an unexpected obstacle is in their path.
• Many supermarket accidents are caused by loose grapes that fall on the floor and are trodden on before the customer has noticed them. This would be easily avoided if all supermarkets were to seal grapes in zip style bags, rather than storing them in loose displays.
