The construction industry has major fatality problems relating to falls from heights, electrical contact, reversing vehicles, trench wall collapses, and workers being struck by falling or moving objects. Serious-injury problems relate to housekeeping, manual materials handling, direct installation activities, and on-site in-transit activities. They vary from one construction trade to another and from one type of project to another. Each of the these problems can be reduced through the application of better site management, better training, and improved work practices. In some instances, changes in materials, tools, or equipment can be beneficial in reducing the incidence of fatal or serious injuries.
建筑行业存在与高处坠落、触电、车辆倒车、沟槽壁坍塌以及工人被坠落或移动物体撞击相关的重大死亡问题。重伤问题涉及现场管理、人工搬运材料、直接安装活动以及现场运输活动。这些问题因建筑行业不同以及项目类型不同而各异。通过采用更好的现场管理、更好的培训以及改进工作方法，上述每个问题都可以得到缓解。在某些情况下，材料、工具或设备的改变有助于减少致命或重伤事故的发生率。
