Providing a safe work environment is all our duties and preventing struck by object injuries could be one of the most impactful ways to keep our workers safe. Struck by objects is a leading cause of construction injuries and deaths, and about 75% of struck by deaths involve heavy equipment. That could include struck against an object, struck by an object, caught in an object or equipment, or caught in collapsing material.
This 4-part miniseries covers the different ways stuck-by accidents occur focusing on:
- Dropped & Falling Objects
- Flying & Swinging Objects
- Cars & Trucks
- Heavy Equipment
Specific safety awareness and best practices information are presented in a short video designed to be watched on your smartphone.
