摘要
This paper discusses the causes of unintentional falls from floor openings and floor edges. Furthermore, we identify the enabling, triggering, and support-related causes of falls; along with their corresponding conditioning causes. It is expected that by focusing the industry's attention on all of the potential causes of falls, safety measures to prevent their occurrence may be improved.
