Unit VII Research Paper OSHA has identified four categories of hazards that account for more than 50% of all construction fatalities: Falls—(36.5%) Struck by object—84 (10.1%) Electrocutions—71 (8.6%) Caught-in/between—21 (2.5%) The assignment is to write a research paper involving one of these four construction hazard categories. You may narrow your topic down to a more specific type of accident within the major category. For example, under falls, you could focus your research on falls from ladders. When writing the paper, consider the following questions:
1. What are the common causative factors?
2. What does data indicate?
3. What are the effective proven corrective measures?
