Burn Injuries at Construction Sites
At construction sites, hot liquids, chemicals and steam provide a risk for serious or deadly burn injuries. Other combustible materials, gas lines and open flames create the risk for an explosion, which could harm site workers or anybody else in proximity. Burn injuries are excruciatingly painful and can cause disfigurement or lifelong disability. In some cases, multiple surgeries and skin grafts may be required as part of the recovery process.
