In UK construction there were 53 fatal injuries, with a rate of 2.4 deaths per 100 000 workers. An average of the previous five years shows a rate of 3.4. There is an overall downward trend in the rate of fatal injury to workers in this sector. 4 members of the public were killed in the same period as a result of construction activities.
The number of fatal injuries in the sector was 2.4 per 100,000, which still makes construction one of the most dangerous industries in which to work.
However the rate was still lower than the average rate over the past five years of 3.4 per 100,0000.
A trained work force is one way of helping drive these figures down even further - one death is too many!
