CAUSES OF SCAFFOLD ACCIDENTS
Most scaffold accidents are caused by poor maintenance or improper construction. Planking that gives way, missing safety parts and injuries caused by falling debris, constructional material or tools are common causes.
Companies responsible for the construction of scaffolds sometimes leave out key safety features of scaffolds which include:
Base plates and mud sills
Scaffold ties
Platform decking and toeboards
Guard rails and lock pins
OSHA REGULATIONS
There are strict OSHA regulations that control the use of scaffolds. Companies that violated OSHA regulations can be held responsible for the scaffold accident. To see OSHA regulations regarding scaffolds click HERE
