What you should know about construction injuries

Construction site employees work in one of the most dangerous occupations in the country. Hundreds, of thousands of workers are injured and even killed in construction site accidents each year. With the large amount of construction going on in California today, there are important things to know about construction injuries:

  • It is the responsibility of the construction company to thoroughly inspect each site with safety engineers and provide safety programs for employees.
  • Third party negligence means the manufacturers of the various equipment and products used on the site can be found liable.
  • One third of the nearly one thousand construction workers who will be killed on the job this year are caused by falls. The worksite might be unstable or fall protection equipment might be misused. Many of the deaths and injuries from falls can be prevented when proper precautions are made.
  • Most falls are attributed to negligent construction and maintenance of the scaffolding.
  • Many accidents are caused by dangerous and defective machines. Serious injuries can result from removing machine parts from safeguards meant to protect workers which are not implemented.

Construction is the United States’ largest industry. The industry has traditionally resulted in high rates of workplace accidents. Construction workers are exposed to a wider variety of hazards and face a greater risk of work related injury fatality than any other employee in the United States. Owners, architects, insurance companies and manufactures all have a degree of responsibility for providing a safe work environment.
