Every year, close to nine million construction workers in the United States are injured at construction sites throughout the country.  Construction industry occupations are notoriously dangerous.

Types of Construction Accidents

Injuries at Construction Sites

Construction accidents often result in significant physical injuries such as amputation or loss of limbs, broken bones, burns, loss of hearing, paralysis, traumatic brain injuries, overexertion injuries and repetitive motion injuries.  The economic cost of treating these often long lasting injuries can place overwhelming financial stress on injured construction workers and their families.

Responsible Parties for a Construction Accident

Many different parties may be responsible for injuries that occur as a result of construction accidents.  If the construction site injury occurred as a result of an unsafe work-site, the injured individual may have a Workers’ Compensation claim against their employer.  Construction industry employers must provide the necessary and appropriate construction equipment, fall protection, training and personal protection equipment.

Other potentially responsible parties include general contractors, subcontractors (for plumbing, masonry and electric work), construction site property owners, equipment manufacturers or designers, engineers and architects. Injured individuals often file third party liability claims against these entities in order to receive adequate compensation for their injuries.

South Jersey and Philadelphia Construction Accident Sites

The law requires that injured workers file their construction accident claims within a specific period of time.  If you or a loved one has been injured in a construction accident, obtaining the assistance of an experienced construction accident lawyer is the first step in obtaining the maximum amount of compensation for your injuries.

Injured construction workers should always remember to document all medical treatment they receive for their injuries.  In addition to recording all physician and therapy visits, injured workers should keep a comprehensive list of all diagnostic tests they undergo and all prescribed medications. Any correspondence from insurance companies, including Workers’ Compensation insurers, should be saved as it might assist legal counsel in handling the claim. Finally, injured individuals should also keep a diary documenting all conversations with their employers, insurance companies, and other potentially responsible parties such as general contractors or subcontractors.
