Working in the construction industry is one of the most dangerous jobs in the country. Workers all over the United States are injured or killed in construction accidents each year. With the growth of construction in Texas today, here are some key points you should know about construction injuries:

• Construction companies are responsible for thoroughly inspecting each site with safety engineers and providing safety programs for employees. When these measures are not implemented or fail to protect construction workers, the owners, architects, insurance companies, and equipment manufacturers can be held legally responsible.
• Third-party negligence means the manufacturers of the various equipment and products used on the site can be found liable. It is also possible that subcontractors and even the general contractor may be contractually responsible for damages.
• Worker’s compensation provides those workers injured on the job, or suffering from a disease while in the course of employment, benefits that include payments based on the employee’s wages and total or partial disability. Unfortunately, this alone may not be enough compensation.

Approximately 40% of all construction site fatalities involve electrocution. Other accidents and injuries that can take place at a construction site include:

• Falling at the Job Site
• Mechanical Hazards
• Crane Accidents
• Oil Field Drilling Accidents
• Scaffolding Accidents
• Compressed Gases Hazards
• Dangerous/Defective Tools and Machines
• Welding, Cutting and Brazing Accidents
