Question 3. Consider the following accident scenario:
A maintenance worker mopped the floor in a hallway and then left the area without posting a "wet floor" warning. The lighting in the hallway had been lowered to conserve energy, so visibility was poor. Two employees walked down the hallway on their way to lunch, discussing where they wanted to go to eat. One of the employees slipped and fell, suffering a broken wrist.
