Construction Risk Management
Why Does Texas Rank Among the Worst States in Work Zone Deaths?
The search for an answer involves data, safety programs and driving habits
Does Texas deserve to be known for having the most deadly work zone accidents in the U.S.? When it came to capital spending on transportation in 2014, Texas and New York states were about $1.5 billion apart: Texas spent $5.789 billion on and New York spent $4.031 billion, according to data compiled by the National Associa‐tion of State Budget Officers. That's not an exact measure of all road construction, but it's one way to keep things in perspective. Only three out of every 100 work zone fatalities involves a construction or maintenance worker. But that makes it no less puzzling that 144 Texas drivers and passengers died in work zone accidents in 2014 while New York recorded only four such fatalities. California and Florida had the next most work zone fatalities in 2014, with 64 and 60, respectively. Work zones, by their nature, combine m a n y e l e m e n t s that flummux drivers moving at high speed. In a length of road where work is being conducted, light levels vary, lane lines shift and road shoulders pinch inward. Unless Jersey barriers are liber‐ally deployed, small lapses in attention can send cars headlong into equipment and workers. Drivers involved in Texas work zone crashes were not more likely than their counterparts in New York to be unlicensed, oper‐ating unsafe cars or beset by foul weather. Over the past 15 years, a combination of work‐zone risk‐management initiatives has helped to reduce the number of fatalities in the U.S. to 669 people in 2014 from 1,026 in 2000, according to data posted on the website WorkZone‐Safety.org. The methods include planning, signage, traffic control, speed‐limit enforcement and driver education. While work zone safety has improved markedly, the number of deadly crashes has risen gradually over the past six years, according to the Fatal Accident Reporting System maintained by the National Highway Traffic Safety Ad‐ministration. Also over the years, the statistical picture of the crashes has come into clearer focus. Younger and older drivers tend to speed more than middle‐aged mo‐torists, a recent study of Minnesota drivers has shown. And other studies have dem‐onstrated that heavy trucks are involved in about a third of all work‐zone fatalities. Do the federal statistics tell a story about more drinking or drug use among Texas drivers involved in work zone crashes? Only modestly more, according to federal data. Carinsurancecomparison.com, using federal data, rates Texas as the among worst states when it comes to drunk driving in recent years and among the worst overall for driver behavior.
What about speeding? Maybe. Texas drivers also take to the road unwatched by radar‐speed camera detection and enforcement systems: State law prevents such camera systems from use in Texas and 13 other states. Drugs and alcohol without doubt kill many motorists driving in work zones. Across the country, 22.2% of drivers were considered to be in a state of drug intoxication in fatal workzone crashes for which drug involvement was reported. In Texas, 42.9% of drivers whose drug involvement was reported were drug‐intoxicated. Almost half of drivers whose alcohol involvement was reported were alcohol‐intoxicated. But figuring out exactly how much alcohol was a major factor in fatal crashes is a challenge. The information is inconsistently reported and such testing in Texas was much spottier than the national average. Because of these reporting inconsistencies, the NHTSA actually uses a statistical estimate in its reports to approximate how likely it was that a driver in a fatal crash was sober or intoxicated. In Texas and in the country in general in 2014, a little less than one‐third of fatal work zone crashes involved a speeding vehicle. Fewer than one out of every five crashes involved a distracted driver. Drivers involved in Texas work zone crashes were not more likely than their counterparts in New York to be unlicensed, operating unsafe cars, or beset by foul weather. Regional differences in driving and safety habits could be another factor. From 2010 to 2012, the South (including Texas) experienced slightly more than half of all the U.S. work zone accidents in the U.S that involved worker fatali‐
ties, according to a recently released re‐view of federal data conducted for the Associated General Contractors. But nor‐malized for employment, the Midwest had a disproportionate share of such acci‐dents. Again, these fatalities involved
workers, not drivers and passengers. With
no clear answer, ENR talked to the trans‐portation departments in both states. New York sees the most pressing issue as ag‐gressive, reckless driving, speeding, and verbal and sometimes physical abuse directed toward flaggers and workers. Distracted driving is also big problem, says the New York State Dept. of Transporta‐tion. In Texas, state officials trumpet the message to drivers that vehicle occupants, not workers, are actually the victims of most work zone crashes in Texas. "We emphasize," the department said in an‐swers to emailed questions, that "drivers must slow down, put down their phones,
not tailgate and pay attention while driving in work zones."And here's one more reason why Texas may not be as bad as its 2014 work zone figures show. Texas is like many other states in that it has long miles of highway through rural areas where driving fast on long rides lulls drives into complacency. And then suddenly Texas drivers arrive in congested and dense urban areas where a lot of road work is under way. Anyway, that's one way of looking at it. Wyoming, Mississippi, Montana, New Mexico and North Dakota, by various measures assessed on the website 24/7WallStreet, are the five most dangerous states to drive in. The factors consid‐ered include deaths per 100,000 miles driven, frequency with which seat belts are used and deaths on rural roads. Texas is the 16th most dangerous, according to 24/7Wall Street. Using different factors, including the condition of bridges, the website carinsurancecomparison.com named Louisiana, Arizona, South Carolina, Pennsylvania and West Virginia as the states with the most dangerous highways. Texas, while consistently ranking among the worst on that website for overall driver safety, was not in the top 10 of states most dangerous for driving.
Subcontractor
a person or business which has a contract (as an "independent contractor" and not an employee) with a contrac‐tor to provide some portion of the work or services on a project which the contractor has agreed to perform. In building construction, subcontractors may include such trades as plumbing, electrical, roofing, cement work and plastering. If a subcontractor is not paid for his/her work, he/she has the right to enforce a "mechanic's lien" on the real property upon which the work was done to collect.

Fraud Alert Our office has been notified of several instances of fraudulent purchase orders being distributed to vendors, unbeknownst to the “issuing” state agency. The fraudulent orders appear to utilize a screen capture of an actual agency purchase order taken from the agency’s website with slight varia‐tions made to actual staff email addresses. The orders also contain a delivery address that is con‐trolled by the perpetrator, not the agency. The purchase orders contain hyphens (‐) rather than periods (.) in the email address extensions. In addi‐tion, some of the delivery addresses appear to be to personal residences, apartments or ware‐houses. So far, all fraudulent purchase orders have contained IT‐related commodity items. Example of fraudulent email address: john.doe@cpa-texas-gov
What You Can Do Please notify all relevant procurement, contract‐ing, accounting and budget staff, as well as CFOs, to be cautious of any such purchase orders.
If you have any question regarding the authentic‐ity of a purchase order, contact the agency that appears to have issued it. If you have any questions about this message, please email [email protected].
Risk Management Why Hand Protection is a Priority on Construction Sites A Safety Week-related gathering stresses preventing harm to hands and fingers
U.S. Labor Dept. data show that more than 100,000 lost-time hand injuries occur every year and that these injuries cost an average of between $6,000-$7,000 in workers’ compensation claims. That's one big reason why when the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro) teamed up to pro-mote job safety with a few of its major contractors on April 27 at historic Union Station in Los Angeles, it emphasized hand safety for the thousands of con-struction workers on Metro transit projects across the city. Recognizing National Safety Week, which runs May 1 - 5, the event was hosted by Metro CEO Phillip Wash-ington; Darryl Waters, vice president of The Walsh Group; Mike Aparicio, executive vice president, Skan-ska/Traylor/Shea; and John Fasana, metro board chair." The theme for the week is 'It's in Your Hands' and this puts focus on hand safety, which is the second most common cause of missed work days for the construction industry," said Fasana. Wash-ington said safety is so important at Metro that its contractors are selected in part "because of their ability to manage an assertive safety program, not only with their employees, but with their subcontrac-tors as well." He said Metro contractors have been successful in keeping industry injuries well below the heavy civil construction averages. "Our contractors have worked nearly seven million hours through Feb-ruary 2017 and they have an injury rate of 1.8 per 200,000 hours worked; that is 35 percent below the industry average of 2.8%," said Washington. According to industry statistics, hand injuries represent one-third of all reported workplace inci-dents, and approximately 75% of industrial injuries that cause partial disability involve the hands. With this in mind, Safety Week is focusing on the hands. A study on the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration#39;s website found that 70% of hand and arm injuries could have been prevented by proper use of gloves. To help reduce hand injuries, OSHA's Hand Protection Standard states that employers require all employees to use appropriate hand protection when exposed to hazards such as those from skin absorption of harmful substances; severe cuts or lacerations; severe abrasions; punctures; chemical burns; thermal burns; and harmful temperature extremes. "Whether you are a first-year apprentice or a CEO, safety is for all of us; we are all in across the board on this together," said Waters, whose company is build-ing the roughly $2 billion, 8.5-mi-long Crenshaw LAX Transit Corridor Project. "What we are trying to achieve is zero safety incidents on any job ever and to that end we are investing a lot in training, both in the classroom and on the worksite." The Safety Week discussion was held in front of Patsaouras Plaza Busway Station Project, which is currently under construction at Union Station. Fasana says the $40-million project has zero accidents or injuries resulting in loss of work time over four months of construction so far. "So this project is a perfect backdrop to pro-mote Safety Week." To further highlight the impor-tance of hand safety, the speakers concluded their presentation by outlining their hands on a giant poster and putting their signatures alongside other construc-tion workers in a show of solidarity.
