Many people each year are injured slipping on wet floors in UK sports grounds, stadiums and concert venues, all of whom generally have a strict cleaning regime to ensure they meet high standards of cleanliness.

The venue cleaning routine will usually involve the public concourse and walkway floors being regularly mopped and left wet while spectators are in the area, this can be very dangerous for people walking on the wet floor.

Due to the large numbers of people visiting events at stadiums and arenas, floors left wet will often lead to slips that cause nasty injuries.

The UK has many large and impressive venues, with Wembley Stadium, Millennium Stadium Cardiff, Twickenham and the City of Manchester stadium being among the most spectacular.

With crowds often in excess of 75,000 people it is crucial the stadiums are kept as clean as possible, including the flooring. Normal practice is to display a “wet floor” warning sign, but people who slip over on the dangerous flooring are often unable to see the warning signs due to large crowds obstructing them.

Common injuries from slipping on a wet floor include bruising, back injuries and muscular pain in the hands and arms.
