Misuse and malfunction of construction equipment cause multiple preventable injuries each year. If you commonly work construction, you are aware of the various types of heavy machinery and specialized equipment that is frequently in use—and the dangers that each piece brings. The hazard inherent to working side-by-side with large machinery can be increased when companies fail to train workers; when equipment is not adequately maintained; and when the manufacturers of these machines release unsafe products.
Examples of equipment failures and accidents include:
Even small pieces of equipment, like a helmet, can be essential to worker safety. Unexpected failures of such gear can result in severe injuries. As such, someone hurt in an equipment failure accident may require extensive hospitalization and further rehabilitation for years.
