Construction sites can be dangerous, even for skilled and cautious workers. Physical labor involves heavy machinery, power tools, electrical wiring, and working from heights or confined spaces. When accidents occur, they can leave workers with debilitating injuries. Some construction accidents claim lives. According to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) approximately 20% of worker fatalities in the U.S. occur in the construction industry.
