Caught-In and Caught-Between Hazards are some of the leading causes of injuries and fatalities in construction and are part of OSHA's "Fatal Four" construction hazards. "Caught-in" or "caught-between" injuries occur when someone is caught, squeezed, pinched or pinned between two or more objects. If not fatal, these incidents often result in crushing injuries such as broken bones, amputations and asphyxiation. This program shows how you can prevent these types of situations by never placing yourself between any solid objects that could move, or between moving equipment and stationary objects.
