In Ontario, slip-and-fall injury compensation is governed by the Ontario Occupiers\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 Liability Act. The law outlines liability in a slip-and-fall accident as well as what is required to successfully secure compensation. The law also explains \u00e2\u20ac\u0153duty of care\u00e2\u20ac\u009d upon which negligence claims in slip-and-fall accidents is based<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"Slip<\/p>\n

Duty of Care<\/h2>\n

The most important aspect of the law states that \u00e2\u20ac\u0153An occupier (such as a business or property owner) owes those entering the property a duty to see that they are kept reasonably safe while on premises.<\/strong>\u00e2\u20ac\u009d The term \u00e2\u20ac\u0153duty of care\u00e2\u20ac\u009d means that the business owner (occupier) must act towards the general public with an established minimum of care, prudence, and attention as would any other reasonable entity or person acting in a similar situation.<\/p>\n

This duty of care is applicable whether the hazard is as a result of an activity that occurs on the property or as a result of the condition of the property. The law ensures the occupier does not hide behind \u00e2\u20ac\u0153assumptions\u00e2\u20ac\u009d that the building is safe. The law establishes a duty to:<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 To inspect premises and remedy potential hazards such as water leaks in the restrooms, dropped menus or napkins on the floor, and dropped food.
\n\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 To post sufficient signs to warn of hazards such as \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Step Down\u00e2\u20ac\u009d or \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Slippery Floor\u00e2\u20ac\u009d
\n\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 To remove snow and ice from accessible sidewalks, parking lots, and walkways
\n\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 To install such safety features as high-traction flooring, non-slip rugs, security cameras, outdoor and indoor lighting, smoke alarms, stairway railing, and sprinkler systems.
\n\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 To hire qualified contractors and builders to build, maintain, and update safe premises
\n\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 To respond in a timely manner whenever a hazard is noted
\n\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 To prohibit access to unsafe areas<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 Current and future medical expenses, including medication, medical equipment, rehabilitation, and therapy costs
\n\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 Loss of income
