Dean Burnetti Law, Lakeland's #1 Construction Accident Injury Lawyer providing experienced Construction Accident legal representation in Central Florida

Each year, the United States sees over 5,000 fatal workplace injuries. Transportation-related work injuries account for nearly 40% these deaths. Violence and other human or animal-inflicted injuries are the second most common cause of workplace fatalities.

Workplace deaths triggered by exposure to harmful substances or environments are on the upswing. In 2016, 500 workplace homicides accounted for the highest number of workplace murders during that decade!  An additional 291 workplace suicides in 2016 was highest work-suicide suicides rate since the Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries began collecting data.

Work-related fatalities resulting from slips, trips, and falls have continued an upward trend since 2011. More than 25% of these accidents are in the tree trimming, roofing, carpentry, and truck driving industries. There’s also been a notable upswing of workplace fatalities among food preparation and food serving occupations.  Further workplace fatalities have increased in building and grounds cleaning and maintenance occupations.  Likewise, installation, maintenance, and repair occupations have seen more fatal accidents.  Also, transportation and material moving occupations’ work fatalities have increased.  And finally, the sales and retail occupation has seen an uptick of workplace deaths.

(By the way, isn’t it startling that law enforcement, firefighters, and airline pilots aren’t in these lists?)

Workplace Injuries Cause Hardships

The bottom line is that these statistics are staggering! People should be able to go out and make a decent wage without the fear of permanent injury or death. These numbers reflect a very high-risk work environment for just about any industry you can think of.

Unfortunately, when an employee is injured in any capacity, it not only affects their own health and livelihood, but it brings a hardship to their family and people who depend on them and their income to sustain their current way of life.

Work related injuries can lead to costly medical bills.  They are also responsible for loss of income and possibly even loss of future earning capacity. As a result, one person’s work-related injury can literally cause their entire family to find themselves in dire circumstances.
