Gas Leak Accidents on Construction Sites
When a gas line is being worked on at a construction site, workers and supervisors alike need to be cautious about potential gas leaks. Workers can be severely injured by a gas leak that goes undetected at first due to the subtle odor of gas. Inhaling too much gas can cause carbon monoxide poisoning, which can cause short-term issues like nausea and vomiting, as well as more severe issues like organ damage, brain damage, and death.
Gas leaks on construction sites can be caused by:
- Workers striking a gas line with tools or excavators
- Turning on the gas main too soon
- Defective valves in the gas lines
