What is a Construction Accident Injury?

Construction work sites are fraught with dangers and the potential for serious and catastrophic injury. Injuries can be extremely serious due to the various large pieces of equipment and activities occurring on the work site. From cranes to welding to electrical wiring to trenching, there are many possible ways workers can be injured on a work site. For example, when a trench is built and the depth is too great or there is a failure to reinforce the trench, workers can have serious or fatal injuries if they are trapped in a cave-in. Sometimes a construction company will cut corners and require workers to dig a trench quickly and without the safety measures required. Other examples of the dangers at construction sites include workers who are not provided proper safety belts and who could fall from a roof. Even a fall from a deck that is only ten feet above ground can cause serious injury or death. If a fall occurs and the worker sustains a blow to the head, traumatic brain injury can result and that can cause long term and serious injury or death.

The most alarming aspect of these accidents is that construction workers who are seriously or fatally injured do not get the help they need from their employer or the entity for whom they are working on the site. The construction company or subcontractor may have failed in its duty to create a reasonably safe work environment or to provide the proper safety equipment for workers on the site.

Reaching out to an experienced injury attorney after a serious construction accident can provide the support needed to secure workers’ compensation benefits and to recover against third parties who might be at fault. Duluth construction accident lawyers Scholle Law are experienced and very knowledgeable about what is required on construction sites and can hold those entities responsible for your injuries or a loved one’s fatal injury. The Scholle Law team has the skill and tenacity required to manage a case involving traumatic injury or wrongful death. They will provide the legal support needed after a tragic accident occurs on a construction site.

The Federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and safety rules and regulations are intended to ensure that safety precautions are taken on work sites to avoid accidents. OSHA reports that nearly 4,340 workers died on the job in 2009. That means accidents happen even when safety precautions are taken and particularly when required precautions are not taken. Death and injury can result in these hazard prone environments and that is tragic.

Despite the fact that most construction workers and those in skilled trades are aware of or trained for basic safety in the handling of machinery and dangerous materials, accidents are still possible. This can be due to defective machinery or tools and other hazards that occur on a construction site. Many times injury is a result of pressure being put on workers to get dangerous work done quickly or the construction company’s failure to provide proper safety equipment on the job or to encourage its use.

He represents injured clients in dealing with their worker’s compensation benefits to make certain that they are protected fully and receive the proper benefit under the circumstances.
