Industrial accidents refer to unexpected events that occur in workplaces, particularly in factories, construction sites, or manufacturing plants. These incidents can result in injuries, fatalities, or damage to property and the environment. Common causes include equipment failure, human error, and unsafe working conditions. Preventing industrial accidents is crucial for ensuring worker safety and maintaining productivity. Employers often implement safety protocols, provide training, and conduct regular inspections to minimize risks. Regulatory agencies, such as the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), set standards to help protect workers and promote safe practices in various industries.
