Construction Accidents

There’s no question about it: construction is a dangerous line of work. Contractors and craftsmen risk their lives on a daily basis to construct our cities. Construction sites are expected to adhere to certain safety standards in order to minimize those risks, but all too often those standards are overlooked in favor of lower costs and quicker construction times—and when safety standards start to slip, the consequences can be catastrophic.

Defective tools, hazardous conditions, and insufficient training can all lead to accidents at a construction site, and they happen more often than anyone would think: hundreds of thousands of construction workers are injured or killed in workplace accidents every year. Construction-related injuries can be severe—burn injuries, brain and spinal cord trauma, and diseases caused by chemical and asbestos exposure are common. Still, even relatively minor injuries like sprains and broken bones can be devastating for construction workers, who often find themselves out of work while they recover and struggle to pay mounting medical bills.
