While almost any type of workplace can offer unexpected accident risk, it is the responsibility of the employer or general contractor to take action to keep that risk as low as possible. Construction sites may seem to be more hazardous than an office building or store, but even at the construction site, accidents and dangers can be prevented by implementing rigid and enforceable safety practices. Workers should be properly trained in the operation of machinery, and the site properly managed according to legal standards.
