How to use "Slipping" in context?
Slipping is one of the most common accidents in the workplace. It can happen when someone falls or when something falls on them. Slipping often happens when someone is trying to do something quickly and they miss a step. Slipping can also happen when someone is not paying attention or when they are not watching where they are going.
There are a few ways to prevent slipping. One way is to use a safety net. This is a large, sturdy net that is set up so that workers can safely walk or work above ground. Another way to prevent slipping is to use slip resistant equipment, such as gloves or boots.
