What Are Common Causes of Construction Accidents?
- Slips & Falls: If you’re working outside, poor weather or road conditions and oil spills create slippery walkways or roads for workers. If you’re working indoors, non-stationery mats, obstructed sightlines, tripping hazards, such as unorganized equipment, can also create dangerous working conditions and lead to slipping, fall and/or trip accidents.
- Electrocution: Unsecure power lines, exposed electrical parts, poor wiring, and improper operation of equipment are the leading causes of electrocution on the job. Organizations must implement an explicit safety protocol to ensure a safe site and that workers know how to avoid harm.
- Injury from Falling Objects: This is the main reason why workers are encouraged to wear safety hats or steel-toe boots while on-site. Working under cranes or heavy machinery and unsecured objects and equipment can lead to a severe injury.
- Hit by a Moving Vehicle or Equipment: High-visibility clothing and proper gear are required for construction work. If these precautions are ignored, or someone is negligent while operating equipment, injuries happen.
What Are the Main Types of Injuries Caused by Construction Accidents?
Workers on construction sites who experience any of the above causes can sustain serious injuries, including:
- Cuts or lacerations
- Broken bones
- Burns
- Traumatic brain injury
- Eye injury that could cause vision impairment
- Loss of hearing
- Amputation of fingers, toes, or limbs
- Illnesses from breathing in toxic chemicals
- Spinal injuries that could lead to paraplegia or quadriplegia
- Wrongful death
