Be careful

Bob Wells, owner of B & N Carpet Care in Peoria, Illinois, told Don Terry recently that a lawyer he cleans for told him that he was handling a lawsuit against another cleaning firm. The cleaner had failed to put out warnings, caution pads or mats after cleaning a customer’s carpet. The customer slipped, fell and was hurt seriously and was suing the cleaning firm.

The attorney noted that Bob used warning pads and mentioned why it was a good idea. Bob thought a reminder would be appropriate in the Clene-Times® and in my blog to be sure to use warning signs and walk off mats or better yet, both. Thanks Bob.
