Common Construction Site Injuries
- Falls from heights: Falls from scaffolding, ladders, or roofs are one of the leading causes of injury in construction. These accidents can result in serious injuries, such as broken bones, spinal damage, or traumatic brain injuries.
- Electrocutions: Working with electrical systems or near power lines poses significant risks of electrocution. These incidents can result in burns, nerve damage, or even fatalities.
- “Struck-by” incidents: Being struck by falling objects or moving machinery is a common hazard on construction sites. These incidents can cause concussions, fractures, and internal injuries.
- “Caught-in” accidents: Among the most severe of any type of workplace injury, a worker can be caught in or compressed by equipment or collapsing structures, leading to severe injuries. These situations often result in crushed limbs, organ damage, or amputations.
- Repetitive motion Injuries: Continuous use of tools and repetitive tasks can lead to musculoskeletal disorders. These injuries often result in chronic pain, reduced mobility, and require long-term rehabilitation.
- Hearing loss: Prolonged exposure to loud machinery and construction environments can lead to permanent hearing damage. Regular use of ear protection helps, but once hearing loss occurs, it can have a lasting impact on a worker's ability to perform their duties.
- Burns: Construction workers can suffer from burns due to fires, chemicals, or hot equipment. Burns can lead to serious health complications, requiring extensive medical treatment and time away from work.
