dc.description.abstractThe construction sector is one of the few high-risk businesses due to occupational accidents, their rate of frequencies, and related serious consequences, sometimes even resulting in the death of individuals. Therefore, it is a vital necessity and priority for employers and employees during the course of a project to comply with occupational safety rules under any circumstances. Nothing should deter or compromise the safety of any individual working in a potential risk environment. Within the scope of this study, the analysis addresses a scaffolding accident that occurred on a construction site. Once the information about how the accident possibly happened was received, the scaffolding in question identified at the construction was kept for an investigation to carry out the corrective and renovation works. In this paper the suspended scaffoldings are firstly categorized. Then how the accident happened was examined and theorized. The examination and analysis were supported by the results. This study is intended to prevent similar accidents and establish necessary precautions as a matter of procedure. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd
