Exposure to electricity can result in very serious injuries including severe burns, brain damage and even death. The higher the voltage, the more likely the severity of injury will increase. Many construction sites and workplaces require high voltage electricity to run the machines, cranes and equipment. This often results in severe workplace injuries due to the high voltage necessary to run the work site.

The mining industry is rife with injuries and accidents, with electrical accidents reported as the leading cause of all mining fatalities. They accounted for over 6% of workplace deaths between 2000 and 2009 according the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). In comparison to other industries, mining is among the most dangerous when it comes to electrical injuries. In fact, the Mine Safety and Health Administration recorded one electrical fatality for every 22 electrical-related injuries that occurred from 2000 to 2009 while other industries averaged one fatality for every 203 injuries.
