Construction Site Accidents
Construction sites are historically very dangerous places to work. Workers are known to suffer serious injuries and deaths because of the nature of the construction industry and the use of power tools, heavy equipment and working at breathtaking heights.
Construction site safety can be the responsibility of owners, contractors, architects and manufacturers of the equipment used at the construction site and those who have ability to make certain adequate safety measures are in place.
Some causes of construction site accidents include negligence, defective machinery and equipment, violations of OSHA regulations and inadequate training and safety measures in place.
The most common injuries at a construction site are those caused by falls, welding burns, nail gun injuries, forklift accidents, exposure to hazardous substances, electrocution and injuries from defective equipment. The heavy equipment, loud machinery and powerful tools are potential dangers to the workers on site. The severity of a construction site injury can be catastrophic, often leading to death.
We encourage you to please contact the Phoenix, Arizona office of the experienced construction site injury attorney, Jerrold A. Mayro of The Mayro Law Firm today to schedule a no cost to you consultation to learn about your legal rights in this matter and whether you are entitled to financial compensation for your injuries.
