About construction accidents.
Treatment for injuries sustained in construction accidents are often covered by workers’ compensation. However, third-party contractors, property and construction worksite owners, and equipment manufacturers can often be held liable for injuries sustained at construction worksites. Many of these injuries occur because of:
- Scaffolding and ladder falls
- Electric shocks
- Burns
- Chemical spills
- Machinery accidents, such as forklift or crane accidents
- Falling materials and debris, such as brick or rock
- Explosions
- Tool malfunctions
When a construction worker is injured, injures may include:
- Head injuries.
- Fractured bones.
- Cuts and bruising.
- Burn injuries.
- Spinal cord injuries.
- Amputations.
- Internal injuries.
