CONSTRUCTION SITE FIRES AND EXPLOSIONS

Fires and explosions are among the most dangerous New York construction accidents.
Construction site fires and explosions can result in extensive property damage and serious injuries for New York construction workers. Burns, disfigurement, broken bones, and numerous other injuries can be caused by flames, extreme temperatures, and falling debris in a New York construction site fire. In the event of a large explosion, people passing by the construction site can also be injured. Defective products, electrical problems, exploding gas lines, and acetylene tank explosions are just a few of the hazards that can cause fires and explosions on construction sites. In order to minimize the risk of injury to construction workers, a fire safety plan and evacuation route should be developed and all employees should be made aware of it. Employers should also establish rules and guidelines for employees to follow when handling flammable or combustible materials.
