Construction workers face a multitude of risks on the job, from falls and electrocution to exposure to hazardous materials and equipment accidents. The physical demands of the work also make them susceptible to strains and injuries from repetitive motions and heavy lifting. These risks are compounded by a lack of proper safety equipment, inadequate training, and inadequate awareness among employees about how to mitigate those risks. The result is that construction workers face a higher risk of death and injury on the job than just about any other profession. It is important for employers and employees to work together to prioritize safety measures and establish protocols for safe work practices to avoid unnecessary injuries and fatalities on construction sites.
