What Are the Most Common Construction Site Accidents?
Each year, construction workers are injured or killed in construction site accidents. One of the leading causes of private sector worker deaths in the construction industry were falls, being struck by an object, electrocution, and being caught in or between an object.
The most common types of construction site accidents include:
- Falls
- Electrocution
- Being struck by an object
- Being caught in/between an object
- Machinery accidents
- Fires and explosions
- Trench collapses
Construction site accidents can cause severe injuries, including traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, broken bones, amputations, and more. Some construction site accidents are fatal. In such cases, the family of the deceased can file a wrongful death claim against the at-fault party to recover compensation for their losses.
Who Is Liable for Construction Site Accidents?
Construction site accidents can be incredibly complex, as many different parties may be liable for the injuries or deaths that occur. In some cases, it may be possible to file a workers’ compensation claim to recover benefits for your medical expenses and lost wages. In other cases, you may be able to file a third-party claim or lawsuit against the general contractor, property owner, or another party.
Our Chattanooga construction accident lawyer can help you understand who may be liable for your damages, such as:
- The property owner
- The general contractor
