Construction sites seem to be accidents waiting to happen. They are a blur of activity surrounded by potential hazards. Some construction accidents include falls from scaffolding, heavy equipment toppling over or crushing other workers, collapsed walls and roofs, explosions, fires, burns, falling debris, unsafe ladders, not wearing a harness or hard hat, toxic substance exposure, electrocution, trench collapsing, crane accidents, and more.
If you or your father, spouse, or brother has suffered a construction accident, do not hesitate to contact a construction accident lawyer who can research your case. Retaining the right lawyer may bring about restitution for your suffering and hold the negligent parties responsible.
Construction workers suffer from severe wounds, brain injuries, head injuries, burn injuries, spinal cord injuries, traumas, blinding, hearing loss, and broken bones.
According to statistics, almost one thousand die from construction accidents. About one-third of construction accident deaths are caused by construction site falls. Common construction site falls include roof related falls, crane falls, scaffolding falls, elevator shaft falls, falls resulting from holes in flooring, and falling objects.
Most of the construction accidents including falls could have been prevented by the proper training, supervision, and safety equipment.
