    Computers: Construction Health and Safety Resources Occupational Hazards
    Falls are the leading cause of fatal injury in construction. In fact, construction accounts for half of all work-related fatal falls in the United States. The NIOSH publication Worker Deaths by Falls (www.cdc.gov/niosh/00-116pd.html) provides an overview of fall hazards, analyzes fatal falls and describes the elements of a good fall protection program. The NIOSH Construction Web page contains links to similar information covering electrical safety, traffic safety, silica, asbestos, lead and more.
