NIOSH Stats Cont.• Industry with the highest electrocutions
Construction (121)• Linemen typically receive extensive training, YET
had the highest number of fatalities! 47• Fifty-five percent of lineman fatalities were due to
failure to wear PPE!!• Twenty Six linemen may possibly be alive today,
IF they followed the Safety Rules!

NIOSH Stats Cont.
• Lack of enforcement to wear PPE and lack of supervisory intervention was a common factor
