New Construction Fatality Map Dashboard
CPWR launched the Construction Fatality Maps in 2011 to support the National Campaign to Prevent Falls in Construction. Now our Data Center has developed the Construction Fatality Map Dashboard, which combines data from OSHA fatality investigations and online media sources to raise awareness of construction hazards and the need for improved safety. It allows computer or mobile device users to search construction fatalities by four filters: Year, Event Type (major categories such as falls), State, and Date.
