Slip/Fall Risks for Contractors
Uneven surfaces, unattended equipment, under-construction sites… for your contractor clients in the construction industry, a job comes with dozens of slip and fall risks.
For contractors, slip and fall injuries can occur on the same level where they’re working. These accidents are frequently caused by factors like:
- Stray cords or wiring
- Slippery surfaces
- Uneven surfaces
- Construction site debris
Same-level accidents often lead to injuries like broken bones, bruises and lacerations, or neck and back injuries. Sometimes, these can contribute to long-lasting or even permanent pain for your contractor clients.
Injuries to contractors can also occur when they slip or fall to a lower level, such as off a roof, off of high scaffolding, or through an under-construction floor. Accidents like these are more likely than same-level accidents to lead to permanent injury, like spinal injuries or brain injuries. They can also lead to fatal trauma.
