(3) Cuts, blunt trauma, and other injuries due to light equipment | Work with light equipment |
(4) Burns | Welding |
(5) Injury due to the impact of falling objects and projectiles | Manual, mechanical, or explosive demolition; shot-hole drilling before the blasting of a cut slope and the subsequent cleanup and field survey |
(6) Collision with or being ran over by vehicles unrelated to the construction work | Work in areas with traffic unrelated to construction work |

(4) Gas inhalation | Work near gas pipelines |
(5) Entrapment and subsequent suffocation due to a landslide | earthmoving, excavation, shafts, underground work, and tunnels |
(6) Particle projection and accidental explosion | Blasting for excavation, shafts, underground work, and tunnels |
(7) Decompression sickness | Work under hyperbaric conditions |
(8) Blows to upper and lower limbs | Manual load handling |
(9) Acute dust and toxin poisoning | Manual, mechanical, or explosive demolition of structures or buildings in general and of hospitals, factories, slaughterhouses, or any other place that may contain toxic substances |
(10) Suffocation or poisoning in confined spaces | Work in confined spaces |
(11) Drowning | Work in areas at risk of flooding |
