Crane Accidents

Every year, crane accidents account for approximately 50 deaths and hundreds of injuries. While most construction site workers comprise most of the deaths and injuries, non-workers are also commonly injured when a crane falls or drops dangerous materials.  Crane accidents can occur when a crane hits a power line, falls over, or drops the materials it is moving. Usually crane accidents are the result of poor assembly, misuse, or worker errors.
