On most projects, those in the trades can face many health and safety risks during their normal daily work activities. Since many of these risks are so common, most are well recognized. These can include electrical hazards, falls, impact, chemicals, venomous snakes and insects and other hazards. Employers of those in the trades should have Injury and Illness Prevention Programs (IIPPs) that identify and communicate the hazards found in the workplace. Workers are provided with hardhats, safety shoes, gloves, quality tools and other PPE and equipment designed to minimize risks on site. But it is a challenge for employers when the workplace presents special hazards not found at a typical water or fire loss. Hospitals and other clinical settings can be just that kind of work place.
