Introduction

The following presentations have beendeveloped in both Spanish and English for theconstruction industry. These presentations focuson the Big Four Construction Hazards falls,

electrocution, caught-in and struck-by.

All training materials will cover the fourhazards seen regularly on construction sites and

will focus on the methods for the recognitionand the prevention of these common hazards.

Caught-in Hazards

Caught-in hazards are one of the fourmost deadly hazards found atconstruction sites.

This program will help you recognizecommon caught-in hazards.

The symbol will tell you if the

situation in the picture is either safeor not safe.

Caught-in Statistics

Each year workers die

from caught-in accidents.During the year 2007:

Total deaths fromcaught-in cases: 294

Deaths in construction:192

Approximately 16% ofdeaths in constructionare from caught-in

accidents Approximately 5% of

all occupational deathsare from caught-inaccidents
