Question

select the choice that best answers the following question. which of these has a high risk for slip, trip, and fall injuries? a) cold and windy places b) inadequately lit area c) barricaded pits and holes d) properly marked aisles and pathways

Explanation:

Inadequately lit areas can make it difficult for people to see obstacles, uneven surfaces, or wet/dangerous spots on the ground. This lack of visibility increases the chance of slipping (if there is a hazard like a spill that is not seen), tripping (over an object that is not visible), or falling (due to misjudging the terrain). Cold and windy places don't directly relate to slip - trip - fall risks unless there is ice (but the option just says cold and windy). Barricaded pits and holes (c) and properly marked aisles and pathways (d) are safety measures that reduce risks.

Answer:

B. Inadequately lit area
