Construction Site Accident Claims

Have you had an injury on a building site? Construction sites are risky, and accidents happen when the risks associated with them are not managed correctly. At The Compensation Experts, we can help victims who have injuries due to falling from scaffolding and ladders, who have been struck by moving vehicles and forklifts, or who have had an electric shock. Their injuries may vary inn severity, however, what they have in common is that the accident could have been avoided. Test

Employers have a duty of care to ensure construction sites are safe for both workers and visitors. So if you have had an injury, even if you are not sure whether it was a genuine accident or due to negligence or error, advisors at The Compensation Experts are happy to assist.

What is a Construction Accident Claim?

We have already mentioned a few types of injuries that can take place on a construction site. As well as burns and fractures from falling from a height or being struck by machinery or vehicles, construction accident claims can also include skin and breathing issues. The cause of these accidents is irritating chemicals in cement.

Construction accidents occur when employers are negligent in their duty of care. Did your employer:

  • Carry out adequate risk assessments regarding access to the site, and the tools being used?
  • Educate you about the dangers associated with your job, and train you on how to use tools correctly?
  • Provide correct protective equipment like noise defenders and hard hats?
  • Have procedures for clearing away spillages?
  • Carry out regular maintenance of equipment to ensure it was safe to use?

If you can answer “no” to any of these, the personal injury solicitors we work with at The Compensation Experts may be able to help you.

An example of a successful claim for compensation for a construction accident was an electrician who slipped when walking on a wet gangplank. Although his employers are not liable for the weather, the walkway was too steep. The footplates were also too narrow to provide adequate grip. The victim injured his knee and because he was a self-employed contractor, he lost income due to being unable to work while it was healing.
