What Is a Construction Accident Claim?
A construction accident claim may involve more than a standard workers’ compensation case. While some injuries are covered by workers’ compensation, others may involve third-party liability when a contractor, subcontractor, equipment manufacturer, or property owner acted negligently. Common construction accidents include scaffolding falls, trench collapses, equipment failures, and electrical injuries. Federal safety standards enforced by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration establish requirements designed to reduce these risks on active job sites. When negligence contributed to the accident, an injured worker may be entitled to pursue compensation beyond basic wage benefits. A construction accident claim may seek recovery for medical costs, lost income, pain and suffering, and long-term disability.
