The Dangers of Construction Sites

Construction must be well planned. Materials must be reliable. Scaffolding, planking, wiring, and supports must be secured and handled with precision to prevent accidental injury or death. Heavy items must be moved carefully and with proper ergonomics to prevent sprains, strains, and tears. Sadly, that’s not always the case. It’s not uncommon for a construction site worker or visitor to fall from a ledge, be struck by falling debris, inhale dust, suffer from excavation-related injuries, or experience medical problems from confinement to small spaces.

Construction work is considered one of the most dangerous jobs in the United States. According to a recent article in USA Today, several types of construction work, such as telecommunications line installers, painters, electricians, and construction equipment operators, made the list of top 25 most dangerous jobs in America.

Can You Claim Workers Compensation?

If you are a construction worker that gets into an accident while on a job site, then your injuries will be covered by workers compensation. It doesn’t matter if it’s a seasonal, part-time, or full-time position — you are eligible for these benefits.

However, receiving this compensation is easier said than done. Sometimes your employer could refuse to pay these benefits. If that’s the case, hiring an experienced workers compensation attorney is a priority.
