Accidents on the Construction Site
There's no doubt about it - construction sites are dangerous places to work in. They pose a variety of risks which combine to increase the possibility of an accident.
There is dangerous equipment, plenty of lifting, unstable materials, working high up, scaffolding, slippery surfaces, vehicles delivering on site plus the stains on your body imposed by demanding physical work.
It's also true that many accidents happen when moving around the construction site. To ensure that this isn't due to an employees lack of concentration, it is important that they take regular rest breaks as prescribed by law. Many people may not realise that this, yet it could be the difference between an accident happening or being avoided.
Accidents on the Construction Site Continued
And as in all situations when you are working with equipment, particularly cutting equipment, faulty equipment can cause serious accidents and injuries. Therefore, maintenance teams need to thoroughly test all equipment before it is used. It is the clear responsibility of the employer to ensure that workers are not operating with faulty and potentially dangerous equipment.
All these factors, and more, combine to make construction sites highly dangerous and the risks must be addressed through special training. There's no doubt that extra care is required to avoid an accident on the construction site .
Unfortunately, construction workers can also be exposed to dangers which cause health issues and you might not be aware of the health problem until later in life. For example, exposure to asbestos can cause cancer, and is potentially deadly
Because of all these known risks, the employers on a construction site, through the site manager, have onerous responsibilities and a special duty of care to provide correct, suitable and up to date safety equipment and advice. If they neglect this duty of care, they are not only putting their workers in danger but also running the real risk of a construction site compensation claim.
Health and Safety Regulations are the responsibility of the Government's Health and Safety Commission and are enforced by the Health and Safety Executive. The Executive then tries to ensure that risks in all workplaces, including construction sites, are properly managed to reduce risk. And to reflect the special risks on construction sites, in 2007 the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations came into affect.
As well as these UK initiatives, in 1996 the European Agency for Safety and Health at Work was established to make Europe 's work places healthier, safer and more productive.
A compensation claim can also be influenced by Workers' Compensation - a form of insurance that provides medical care for injured employees.
So as you will appreciate, construction site claims are surrounded by a host of regulations in which Claims Justice are well versed. This enables their experts to make well judged decisions when it comes to these sorts of claim.
If you are injured on a construction site be sure to collect the evidence about exactly what happened. Use the camera on your mobile phone and if possible, get the names and addresses of witnesses. And after you've received any necessary treatment at the Accident and Emergency Department of your local hospital, get independent specialist advice from Claims Justice about making a construction accident claim.
Because construction workers often depend on their physical fitness to be able to work, any injury can result in significant loss of earnings. So Claims Justice will always take this into account when organising your claim for compensation.
