Roofing Industry – Slip and Fall Injury Risk
For many workers in the roofing industry, high heights are part of the job! Working with roofs and roofing-related home repairs often requires roofers to experience heights or one, two, or three stories when working with residential homes, or even higher heights depending on their project. If they slip and fall from a roof or other height, roofers may experience severe or even life-threatening injuries. These include:
- Broken bones
- Spinal cord injuries
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Internal bleeding
In some cases, an injury suffered in a roofing industry slip and fall accident can be fatal or life-changing. For example, a spinal cord injury could lead to permanent paralysis or a traumatic brain injury could cause serious brain damage. Injuries like organ injuries, spinal cord injuries, and head injuries can also lead to death.
