Construction Accident Injury Attorneys Serving all of Central Florida
Construction is one of the foremost industries in Florida. As a high risk industry, it ranks second in the nation for deaths caused by injury. In the US, construction deaths represent 20 percent of all work-related fatalities, with a total of 1,226 in 2006. The rise in construction worker deaths in the US can be attributed to a mix of untrained immigrant workers, a disregard for safety regulations and profit conscious contractors who scrimp on items from labor to materials and beyond. Some construction site hazards that result in serious injury or death are:
- Construction Site Falls
- Electrocution
- Falling Construction Materials
- Forklift and Crane Accidents
- Hazardous Materials
- Machinery Accidents
- Nail Gun Accidents
- Pedestrian Injuries
- Scaffolding Accidents
- Welding, Cutting and Brazing Accidents
Despite stringent safety OSHA standards and regulations, Florida construction workers face high risks of injuries on the job site every day. Contractors, architects, manufacturers and property owners may be held liable for injuries or wrongful deaths sustained at a construction site.
