Slips, trips, and falls:

Spills, weather hazards, and loose mats are frequent causes of slips, while trips are often the result of the obstructed vision, poor lighting, clutter or uneven walking surfaces.

 Falls from heights:

 18% of all workplace fatalities are the result of falls from heights. Inadequate safety protection, misused or poorly maintained equipment, and poorly lit or messy work areas are the causes of most falls from heights.

Struck by moving vehicles:

Many of these accidents are the result of workers being struck by vehicles or equipment. Poor training obstructed vision on the part of operators, and lack of high-visibility clothing for workers can also put your workers at increased risk.

Hit by flying or falling objects:

Workers are most at risk while working under cranes, scaffolds and other overhead equipment.

 Electrocution:

Electrical injuries occur less often on work sites but they are the most fatal. The danger comes from both electrical shock and arc flash. Most electrical accidents are the result of improper maintenance or grounding of the equipment, unsafe operations around power lines and conductors, overloaded circuits, or exposed electrical parts or improper wiring. 

Protect your workers and your business with the right insurance coverage

Preventing accidents should be your first line of defense against workplace accidents. But in the event of accidents, your second line of defense is being protected with adequate insurance coverage. The best way to protecting your worker is by giving safety training courses on your worker and achieve bizSAFE & ISO 45001:2018 certificates because this is the way of producing worker health and safety.
