Common Causes of Slip and Fall Accidents on Construction Sites
Construction sites are dynamic environments with constant activity, heavy machinery, and potential hazards. Common causes of slip and fall accidents include:
Wet or Uneven Surfaces: Spilled liquids, exposed wires, or uneven flooring can easily cause a fall.
Poor Lighting: Inadequate lighting in work areas and stairwells increases the risk of falls.
Lack of Safety Equipment: Missing guardrails, harnesses, or proper footwear can lead to preventable accidents.
Obstructed Pathways: Tools, materials, and debris left in walking paths create significant hazards.
These accidents often result in severe injuries, including broken bones, head trauma, spinal injuries, or long-term disabilities.
Your Rights After a Construction Slip and Fall Injury
Under New York law, injured construction workers are entitled to workers’ compensation benefits, regardless of fault. These benefits may include:
Coverage for medical expenses
Compensation for lost wages
Rehabilitation and recovery costs
However, navigating the claims process can be challenging. Insurance companies may dispute your claim or offer inadequate settlements. That’s where Cass and Peters Workers’ Compensation Law steps in.
