Workers Getting Injured Over Suspended Loads–An Increased Alarming State

According to the statistics provided by the U.S. Bureau of Labour’s Census of fatal occupational injuries research file, 723 workers in the private sector died by coming in contact with moving objects and equipment- like overhead cranes in 2012. Industries have shown great concern for their worker's safety, especially for those working on construction sites. They have undertaken many measures in order to safeguard their workers' safety and to avoid any kind of tragedy. Workers are trained thoroughly before assigning such work. They have timely sessions too in order to update them with the latest techniques and train them about the newest technologies in the workplace, in addition to how they can safely work with them.
