Electrocution Accidents Are Preventable
Posted on October 13, 2011 by Ronald Todd
Electrocution injuries do not have to happen. An electrocution accident can happen when construction site hazards are not eliminated. These construction site hazards include hazards such as exposed electrical wiring, equipment that is not locked out and tagged out, overhead power lines that workers can contact, buried cable around excavations, etc.
General Contractors can make their job sites safe from electrocution injuries if they review and comply with OSHA regulations (29 CFR 1926.402 through 1926.408), the National Electrical Code (NEC) and the National Electrical Safety Code (NESC). When construction contractors eliminate construction site hazards, construction fatalities from an electrocution accident are eliminated.
