- Leaks (air conditioning leaks, refrigerator leaks, etc.)
- Missing or misplaced warning signs
- Missing or misplaced weather mats

These are just some of the hazards that could potentially lead to a slip and fall accident at a restaurant. Because KBBQ restaurants are often packed with patrons, it can be difficult for staff to keep up with any slip hazards that arise, unfortunately leading to slip and fall accidents that could have been completely prevented.
