Grocery stores and restaurants mop up hazards / by Janet Willen

Sumario: Most people don't think of a grocery store as a dangerous place to work. But a recent report by the Bureau of Labor Statistics puts it right up there after restaurants. In the 1993 BLS report, eating and drinking establishments came in first and grocery stores third in the total number of occupational injuries. Here are the numbers: 382,500 injuries in the restaurant industry and 230,800 injuries in grocery stores. These alarming numbers have prompted many establishments to introduce strict safety and training measures to lower the risk of injuries in their businesses
