description James Cawley and Gerald Homce of the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) published key findings in a comprehensive analyses of workplace electrical injuries. Their report, 'Trends in Electrical Injury 1992-2002,' published by the Institute of Electrical nd Electronics Engineers in 2006, claims: Electrical hazards were the sixth leading cause of workplace fatalities 3,378 workers died from on-the-job electrical injuries The construction industry accounted for 47% of all electrical deaths, and had a electrical fatality frequency rate six times that of the overall workforce 46,598 workers were nonfatally injured by electricity 99% of the electrical fatalities were due to electric shock, but 18,360 of nonfatal electrical injuries involved hospitalization due to electrical burns.
