Who needs slip testing?
Any business or property owner with public-facing floor surfaces should consider slip testing. This includes facility managers, property managers, body corporates, aged care operators, hospitality venues, retail stores, builders, and anyone with a duty of care for people walking on their premises. Regular testing demonstrates compliance with workplace health and safety obligations.
What happens if my floor fails the slip test?
If your floor doesn't meet the required P-rating, Greg will include practical recommendations in your report. Options may include anti-slip treatments, surface coatings, matting solutions, or in some cases, resurfacing. The report provides clear documentation of the current state and a pathway to compliance.
How often should floors be tested?
We recommend slip testing annually as a minimum, or more frequently for high-traffic areas, wet environments, or surfaces that show visible wear. Testing should also be done after any floor treatment, new installation, incident, or significant change in use. Regular testing helps maintain an ongoing record of compliance.
What Australian Standards apply to slip testing?
The two key standards are AS 4586:2013 (Slip resistance classification of new pedestrian surface materials) and AS 4663:2013 (Slip resistance measurement of existing pedestrian surfaces). AS 4586 applies to new flooring installations, while AS 4663 covers testing of floors already in use. Both standards use the wet pendulum test method.
