The Americans with Disabilities Act recommends floors and walkways have a slip resistance of 0.60 or higher, and 0.80 for ramps, including wheelchair ramps. As demonstrated in the graph, floors cleaned with Lotus Pro Ozonated water have a reading of 0.92, greatly exceeding the requirement of the Americans with Disabilities Act. Floors cleaned with a regular floor cleaner soap have a reading of 0.54. Think of it this way, you are greatly reducing the probability of slips and falls and reducing your exposure to liability.
