Construction Accidents

In the last quarter-decade since the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has been regulating workplace safety, injuries and fatalities in industrial jobs have declined - except for on construction sites.

The largest U.S. industry is construction, and it constantly registers high rates of workplace accidents. OSHA has deployed a large amount of its enforcement to the construction industry, yet it's had little success significantly reducing injuries and fatalities in that field.

A 1992 Bureau of Labor Statistics report revealed that the lost-workday case rate for the construction industry was 5.7 per 100 full-time workers - the highest of any major economic sector.

Injuries in construction can stem from:

  • Lifting-equipment failure
  • Compressed-gas accidents
  • Welding accidents
  • Roof- or ladder-related falls
  • Trench collapses
  • Fires and explosions
  • Electrocutions and shock
  • Crane accidents
  • Being hit by a vehicle on the highway
  • Being hit by operating equipment

Worker's compensation benefits do not take into account pain and suffering when a construction worker is hurt on the job.
