Why Construction Workers in Northern Nevada Need CPR & First Aid Training
Construction is consistently ranked among the most dangerous industries in the United States. In Nevada, construction workers face daily exposure to life-threatening hazards including falls from height, electrocution, equipment accidents, and heat-related emergencies.
When an incident occurs on a job site, emergency responders can take 10 minutes or more to arrive - and survival rates from cardiac arrest drop by 10% with every passing minute.
Construction Workplace Emergency Statistics:
The construction industry accounts for nearly 20% of all worker fatalities in the U.S. each year
-
Falls, struck-by incidents, electrocution, and caught-in/between hazards are responsible for the majority of construction deaths
-
Over 10,000 cardiac arrests occur in U.S. workplaces annually
-
Immediate CPR can double or triple a victim's chance of survival
