According to the Maryland Division of Labor and Industry, construction is one of the most hazardous of Maryland's growing industries. Electrocution hazards are one of the leading causes of fatalities and major injuries in this sector.

According to the University of Maryland Medical Center, spinal cord injuries can be sustained in a number of different ways, including:
