How to Prevent Equipment Accidents
Mishandling equipment can lead to accidents and mishaps. According to research, construction and contracting companies spend an average of $275 per month on workers’ compensation coverage, and the average workers’ compensation claim is around $40,000. Some of this cost can be reduced through proper training and onboarding. There are so many mistakes we see that are completely preventable. We want to help your team have the basic knowledge of what to look for so that this cost is reduced and that no matter what crew you send to a job site, the result is similar.
