Rubber pads are the way to go. Easily moveable, and you can propose them as 'eco-friendly' recycled material.

Concrete pretty much rules out changing any holes easily, and it also has the same puddling problem. Pads arent supposed to be raised off the ground whether they are concrete or rubber, theyre supposed to be flush.

If you are going to argue about slip, I would much rather slip and fall on a rubber mat than a concrete pad any day.
