In Canada, struck-by incidents remain one of the leading causes of injury and fatality on construction sites. A significant number of these incidents are linked to distractions, particularly those caused by mobile device usage. Do not use mobile devices on the job site! They are a serious source of distraction that can lead to injury or death.
To raise awareness and improve workplace safety, IHSA is leading Struck-By Awareness Week from April 21 to 25, 2025. IUOE Local 793 proudly supports this initiative and remains committed to protecting every worker building and maintaining Ontario.
