Construction Accidents
A Dangerous Job
Every construction site supervisor or employer is required to provide for safety trainings for their employees and ensure the site meets safety standards. Even with precautions in place, however, accidents happen. There may be defective products or machinery that causes injury. There may even be lapses in providing full safety provisions that lead to accidents like slips and falls.
If you are injured in a construction accident and your injury was caused by the negligence of a third party, you are entitled to compensation.
Filing a Claim
If you are injured on the job, you are entitled to receive workers’ compensation for your medical expenses and lost income for the time you are unable to work. Workers’ compensation alone, however, may not be able to make up for the pain and suffering you have experienced or for your long-term care needs in the case of a serious accident. Often, a third party has some responsibility for your injury, allowing you to bring a case against them and receive the full compensation you need.
