Professor Dr. Noori Sadeq Ali at the department of Civil Engineering gave a seminar entitled SAFETY IN EXCAVATION WORKS on 12-February-2020 at 12:30 PM in Department of Civil Engineering - Hall 9004: In a day and age where people still get injured on the job, you would think safety would be a banner held high by everyone, but unfortunately it isn't. Money and apathy seem to be the two leading reasons why safety sometimes takes the back seat. The importance of workplace safety can't be stressed enough. We've listed 7 reasons why putting safety in the drivers seat is a winning proposition for everybody.There are the obvious reasons why workplace safety should be our priority including:1. Injury - There were 4,679 workers killed on the job in 2014 according to OSHA. 2. Death - There were almost 3 million recorded injuries during that same period.

Along with the above-mentioned pain, suffering and death, there is the financial impact.
