A recent report from the Center for Construction Research and Training (CPWR) reveals a concerning rise in fatalities among Hispanic construction workers. Between 2011 and 2022, the death rate for Hispanic workers in construction has doubled, while non-Hispanic fatalities have increased by only 16.5%.
Why Are Hispanic Construction Workers at Greater Risk? One of the leading factors contributing to this disparity is the lack of safety training materials in Spanish. Without access to essential construction safety courses, many Hispanic workers may struggle to understand critical workplace safety protocols, increasing their risk of accidents and fatalities.
We recognize the urgent need for Spanish-language workplace safety training in the industry. For this reason, the continuation of translating every course in the Construction Safety library is crucial and available soon to ensure that every worker, regardless of language, has access to life-saving safety information.
Providing Spanish-language construction safety courses is not just a necessity – it’s a lifesaving initiative. Employers can help reduce workplace fatalities by ensuring that all workers receive proper safety education in their native language.
