Every store has a responsibility to protect its customers from harm while they are on the premises. This is not only good customer policy, it is also the law. That is why store owners should take care to remove, or warn customers about, any obstacles or hazards that could cause them harm. If they fail to do so, then they could be held liable for any injuries that occur as a result of the store owner’s negligence in creating a safe environment for their customers.
