Causes of Scaffold Accidents
The common causes of scaffold accident in Brooklyn are:
- Poor scaffold erection, set up, and or construction.
- Workers using the wrong type of construction equipment for the job being performed including the wrong type of scaffolding or alternative to scaffolding when a scaffold is necessary
- Planking collapse or support collapse of the scaffold which may result from lack of safety practices and negligence
- Failure to install proper guardrails on the scaffold to prevent workers from falling
- Lack of construction safety devices & equipment (toeboards, guardrails, safety netting, lifelines, harnesses, etc)
