Pennsylvania and New Jersey construction accidents resulting in personal injuries occur daily. Accidents are often caused by negligence on the part of employers who do not provide a safe work environment or fail to maintain equipment. Construction accidents are also precipitated by careless employees who do not follow proper safety rules on the job. Accidents such as falling from a roof, scaffolding, ladder, or through a floor, being struck by a big piece of construction equipment, being punctured by a nail gun, or being exposed to hazardous gases and/or chemicals can all produce serious injuries with long and painful recovery times.
There are many rules and regulations regarding construction accidents.
Do your homework and find a personal injury lawyer who is up on the latest changes in the law.
Regardless of the cause of the Bucks County construction accident, the nature of the accident can be very severe and require a construction worker, or anyone who has been injured on a construction site, to spend time in the hospital, undergo surgeries, miss months of work, and, of course, suffer loss of wages and hefty medical expenses. Serious construction accident injuries may cause financial hardships. Those suffering with life altering personal injuries sustained while on the job deserve full money compensation for all they have lost and will likely never regain.
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) sets many standards and regulations on construction sites. Construction injuries in Bucks County cities like Bensalem, Bristol and Doylestown occur when these standards are not upheld. It takes an experienced construction injury lawyer to determine these OSHA violations, and one who will hire experts to find and prove these violations.
