It’s no secret that construction is one of the most safety-intensive industries in the world. It’s also one of America’s largest industries, with some 7.4 million people employed in the construction field. Construction workers face unique hazards and risks both to their physical safety and to their overall wellness. The EHS field has evolved, it’s becoming clear that construction employees need holistic support to keep them injury-free, engaged, happy, and productive.
So, what does injury prevention for construction workers look like in 2022? With a blend of ergonomics, mental health support, and programs to promote overall wellness, construction companies can develop comprehensive safety plans to keep their employees out of the workers’ comp and health care systems while managing organizational costs.
