No! According to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), slip resistance is based on the frictional force necessary to keep a shoe heel or crutch tip from slipping on a walking surface under conditions likely to be found on the surface. The coefficient of friction provides a close approximation of the slip resistance of a surface. A higher coefficient of friction means the floor is more slip resistant. OSHA recommends that walking surfaces have a minimum static coefficient of friction of 0.5. Our work yields floors that consistently satisfy the OSHA and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) recommendations.  more
