http://accidentlinks.com/templates/Default/img/logo.gifhttp://accidentlinks.com/Construction is one of our most vital, but most hazardous, industries. It is also one of the most physically demanding lines of work which means that any injury that results in permanent work restrictions may turn out to be a career ending injury. OSHA and other local safety regulations set standards which must be followed in doing this vital work, but they are too often ignored. Injured workers can generally recover worker's compensation benefits, and then pursue other responsible parties on the job site in a construction negligence lawsuit for reasons such as: Unsafe conditions on the job site: these might include things such as open floor holes, deep tire ruts, unguarded perimeters, defective stairs, or any other condition on the job site which is a hazard; Failure to supervise and control the work: this includes failing to stop work which is done in OSHA regulations and failing to properly coordinate the work so that work being done by one contractor does not put another contractor's employees at risk Unsafe work practices: this includes any work practice that puts other at risk on the work site, and may include failing to follow safe trenching practices to ensure the safety on an excavation Unsafe equipment on the work site: this includes tools, ladders, scaffolding, and other equipment which must be used on the job site. All equipment must be properly set up and maintained for the work being done. A product liability lawsuit may result if the equipment was not safely designed or was manufactured with a flaw. http://accidentlinks.com/Construction-Accidents/http://accidentlinks.com/Construction-Accidents/law-offices-of-barry-g-doyle-p-c-l20.htmlThe Law Offices of Barry G.
