Moving Parts on Construction Equipment Injure Indiana Workers
Posted on September 14, 2011 by Ronald Todd
Construction equipment have many moving parts that can cause severe injuries, such as amputations, crushed fingers, hands and feet, spinal paralysis, traumatic brain injury and even wrongful death.
To avoid the construction site hazards associated with equipment, the controlling employer needs to:
- Instruct workers to recognize and avoid unsafe conditions associated with their work (29 CFR 1926.21(b)(2)); and
- Install guards on moving parts of equipment with which workers may come into contact (29 CFR 1926.300(b)(2)).
