Construction work is arguably one of the most dangerous jobs in the entire world. Many times accidents occur because employers, general contractors, and building owners will cut corners to save money rather than ensure the well-being of their workers on construction sites. Often times it is not only the workers who are at risk. Unsafe conditions can also be a danger to innocent bystanders and pedestrians where serious injuries or even death can occur as a result of failing to meet basic expectations to keep everyone safe.
According to the 2024 annual report from the New York Committee for Occupational Safety and Health (known as “NYCOSH”), the construction accident fatality rate increased approximately 2.7% percent in New York City from about eleven (11) deaths per 100,000 workers to almost twelve (12) per 100,000 workers in 2022.
