Construction Accidents in Victoria

Advocacy for Injured Texas Construction Workers

Construction zones constitute leading places for workplace accidents, according to national statistics from organizations such as the Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA). Construction workers face more hazards every day on the job than most other employees do in their workplaces.

Some of the hazards on construction sites include:

• Malfunctioning equipment and machinery
• Falls from high places including scaffolding and ladders
• Loose falling objects
• Trip-and-fall accidents over obstacles
• Slip-and-fall accidents on oily or slippery surfaces
• Explosions / fires caused by faulty electrical wiring
• Chemical exposure, including asbestos exposure
• Improperly trained or negligent equipment operators

The jobs construction workers undertake put them in potential harm's way almost every day they clock in for work. From burns to chemical illnesses to broken bones to knee or neck injuries, the types of workplace injuries construction workers may experience are diverse and devastating. It is important that you speak with a Victoria personal injury attorney if you or a loved one suffered an injury caused in a construction accident.
