The construction industry is perhaps the most dangerous industry of employment in the United States. The Bureau of Labor of Statistics revealed that the construction industry is the leading industry in terms of occupations with the highest number of worker fatalities. According to the report, in 2015 a total of 937 worker fatalities in the industry were reported. The shocking number was also reported to have risen by 4 percent compared to the previous year.
With the damning statistics, the incidence of accidents in the construction industry remains worrisome and thus puts all workers in the industry at risk. Construction accidents happen in the blink of an eye and can be due to several underlying factors ranging from faulty equipment to equipment slip or falling objects.
Some of the more common construction accidents are caused by factors that could easily have been guarded against, while in some other cases construction accidents may be caused by factors which the worker has no control over.
