Miami, FL (April 4, 2025) – A workplace injury occurred earlier today at a local restaurant in Miami, Florida, when a worker slipped and fell while walking in the kitchen. The incident, which took place around 10:00 a.m., involved a 29-year-old female employee who was carrying trays of food when she slipped on a wet floor near the kitchen entrance.
According to initial reports, the wet floor had not been properly marked with warning signs, leading to the worker’s fall. She suffered a sprained ankle and a possible concussion after hitting her head during the fall. Emergency responders arrived at the scene quickly and transported the worker to a nearby hospital for further evaluation and treatment.
The restaurant management has been notified, and an internal investigation is underway to determine whether proper safety measures were in place, including the use of floor mats and the presence of wet floor signage. OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) is expected to review the incident.
We extend our thoughts to the injured worker and wish them a full and speedy recovery.
