Coinciding with National Cancer Survivors’ Day on 1 June, IPAF has launched an industry-wide fundraising initiative with Weston Park Cancer Charity to raise funds for vital cancer research. 

In 2023, falls, slips, and trips accounted for 421 of 1,075 construction-related deaths – nearly 39% of all fatalities. Most fatal falls (260) occurred from heights between 6 and 30 feet, with ladders and stairs involved in 109 incidents. These figures emphasize the ongoing need for comprehensive safety training to protect workers in the construction industry.
