People that are involved in a profession where they deal with electrical equipment are more prone to electric shock injuries or electrocution.
There are several reasons for electric shocks in the workplace such as:
Use of faulty equipment
Improper or faulty wiring
Drilling in the area with hidden electric wires
Inefficient protective clothing and equipment
Wires near to water
Overloaded plug sockets
Lack of employee training
It may also lead to a serious injury or even death in some cases, especially if the voltage of wires/equipment is very high. Common injuries caused by electric shock include burns, cardiac arrest, numbness, scarring, nerve damage, brain injury, breathing difficulties and others. Such injuries can be life-changing for the victim.
