Struck-By Hazard Awareness

Struck-by injuries in the construction trades are so common and can be so serious that OSHA has made them part of their Focus Four emphasis program. Discover what constitutes a struck-by hazard, review common workplace hazards in both construction and general industry, and identify controls to eliminate or reduce the hazard.

Pinnacol has created resources to help you better understand the risks associated with Struck-by hazards in the workplace.
