Construction Injuries
Construction sites are characteristically dangerous environments, filled with heavy machinery, powerful tools, and numerous potential hazards. Some of the most common causes of injuries occurring on construction sites include unstable scaffolding, electrical hazards, defective tools, chemical exposure, falling objects, lack of proper safety equipment, and slip-and-fall incidents.
When a construction worker is injured on the job, the physical, emotional, and financial toll can be overwhelming. Medical expenses can quickly spiral out of control, while lost wages compound financial strain. The pain and suffering associated with serious injuries can have a profound impact on a person’s quality of life, affecting not only the injured worker but their entire family.
Workers injured on construction sites can pursue compensation for a wide range of damages including coverage for all medical expenses related to the injury, both immediate and long-term. Compensation for lost wages is crucial, accounting not only for the time immediately following the accident but also for any reduced earning capacity in the future. Pain and suffering damages acknowledge the physical and emotional toll of the injury, while compensation for emotional distress recognizes the psychological impact of a traumatic accident.
