Common Construction Site Injuries
Whether you’re a laborer, electrician, welder, or operator, construction work puts you at risk of serious injury every day. Even with safety protocols in place, accidents can happen due to negligence, unsafe conditions, or defective equipment. Here are some of the most common types of injuries construction workers face:
Falls From Heights
Working on scaffolding, ladders, roofs, or elevated platforms is part of the job for many construction workers. Unfortunately, falls from heights are a leading cause of workplace injuries and fatalities in the industry. A fall can result in broken bones, spinal cord damage, traumatic brain injuries, or even death. These incidents often occur when safety harnesses are missing, guardrails are defective, or walkways are not properly secured.
Crush Injuries and Caught-Between Accidents
Construction sites often involve large machinery, vehicles, and heavy materials. If a worker becomes pinned between a vehicle and a wall or trapped under collapsing materials, the resulting crush injuries can be catastrophic. These incidents may lead to internal injuries, broken bones, amputations, or long-term disabilities.
