Construction accidents refer to incidents that occur on construction sites, often resulting in injuries or fatalities. These accidents can happen due to various factors, including falls from heights, equipment malfunctions, or unsafe working conditions. Common causes include inadequate safety measures, lack of training, and failure to use personal protective equipment (PPE). Preventing construction accidents is crucial for worker safety. Employers are responsible for providing a safe work environment and ensuring that all workers are trained in safety protocols. Regular inspections and adherence to regulations set by organizations like the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) can help minimize risks and protect workers on site.
