Accidents on construction sites do not just happen, they are caused through different factors. Did you know, two thirds of all accidents happen because of human behaviour? The construction industry employs a high percentage of unskilled or untrained labour so risks can easily be misjudged or simply ignored. To help minimise risk onsite, it's really important that workers are properly and effectively trained.
Root cause analysis further shows that accidents can happen because of poorly-maintained or defective hand-held tools. Such equipment must regularly be checked and repaired to ensure the highest levels of safety and productivity.
Accidents can also be caused by organisational challenges in managing health and safety. This can be, for example, with regards to training, certification and challenges in keeping control of these topics.
The work environment plays an additional role in occupational health and safety. Effects such as weather, darkness, or working at heights pose further risks that can result in accidents.
Issues related to behaviour, lack of knowledge, lack of experience, inattention, misjudgment of risks, misuse and manipulation of PPE or equipment.
Issues related to defective machinery, poorly-maintained tools, missing instruction manuals.
Issues related to inadequate instruction and training, planning and work preparation, or control and coordination of staff.
Issues related to weather, darkness, noise, distraction, working at heights or in machinery danger zones.
Serious jobsite accidents and work-related health problems can be caused by one or a combination of these elements.
With all this mind, we place a strong focus on supporting the prevention of accidents on the construction site. Accidents have emotional as well as economic consequences. We want everyone to feel safe and work safely on the jobsite as much as our customers do. Ultimately, a work environment geared towards improved workers’ health and safety results in higher productivity and peace of mind for all stakeholders.
