Slip and Fall Accidents
 
We should maintain constant vigilance in order to recognize potential hazards present at our parishes, agencies, schools and institutions which may contribute to someone sustaining serious bodily injury.  Precautionary steps should be undertaken to eliminate potential hazards in order to maintain a safe environment on our property.
 
For the safety of those who visit our parishes, schools, and office, all walkways should be clear of debris and in good state of repair.  Carpets and floor coverings should be maintained so as not to evidence any signs of disrepair.  All means of ingress and egress to stairs should be highly visible.  Approaches to the altar should be well lit.  Railing wherever possible should be present in order to assist pedestrians. Church aisles should be free of runners at weddings.
