Common Ski Resort Workplace Accidents You Should Be Aware of

Skiing facilities” have the third-highest non-fatal injury rate among all industries in the U.S., according to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). Even though most resorts make worker safety a priority, accidents are inevitable. For example, ice can build up in areas around the slopes, or a guest may not practice safe skiing behavior.

Some of the most common injuries among ski resort employees include:

1. Falls from slipping on ice or snow

2. Collisions with other skiers or boarders

3. Lifting-related injuries from transporting injured skiers or snowboarders

4. Strains and sprains

5. Getting caught or falling when assisting someone out of a lift

6. Lacerations, cuts, and bruises
