Wet Entrance, Open Door: Why the Ruling Against a Supermarket Is More Than a Damages Case

Answer

What should supermarkets in Mallorca do when it rains heavily?

Supermarkets should take active steps to reduce slipping risks, especially at the entrance. That can include closing the door during the worst rain, putting up clear warning signs, using proper non-slip flooring, and making sure staff follow a clear safety routine. A mat alone is usually not enough if water is entering the shop.
