If you’ve ever taken a tumble down the aisle – sue! No, not in a church. Supermarkets have come top of a list of businesses and organisations most likely to be sued if someone should suffer a slip on their premises. Women in London were identified as most likely to take action, with men in Wales the least likely.

Only 11% of respondents said they would consider suing corner shops, while 33% said they would have a go at supermarkets. Welsh corner shops that specialise in motoring magazines and football stickers must be nigh on immune, then.

Source? A flooring company, wouldn’t you know. ‘One way of reducing the likelihood of someone slipping over is to install high-quality, high-performance safety flooring,’ it trills. Thanks for that.
