Although construction sites can be dangerous, employers are required by law to provide a safe working environment. Despite this, accidents will happen, and when they do, injured employees are entitled to receive workers' compensation benefits.
Construction site accidents can vary, as can the extent of injury, but circumstances may include the following:
- Construction site falls
- Scaffolding accidents
- Roofing accidents
- Ladder accidents
- Falling debris
- Falling out of a truck when loading or unloading contents
- Strains or falls while carrying materials
- Electrocution
- Crane accidents
- Welding accidents
- Road construction accidents, including while raising or removing concrete
