are they kept clean and clear?
are they suitably slip-resistant, especially if they are sloping, or may get wet or oily, or are on an emergency escape route? See Watco Safety Grip, GRP Sheet and Anti-Slip Spray
are pedestrians and vehicles kept apart? - See Impact Protection Hoops, Floor Marking and High Visibility Clothing.
can vehicles access all areas safely? - See Speed Bumps, Mirrors, Signs and Bollards.
