A Massachusetts construction work site is often chaotic, with an extraordinarily high amount of activity taking place. Even when Massachusetts construction companies have the best intentions to maintain safety at the Massachusetts workplace, Massachusetts construction site accidents at a job site can and do happen frequently. Massachusetts construction sites are dangerous places, with a multitude of heavy machines, constantly changing conditions, and heights that Massachusetts workers must ascend on a daily basis in order to perform their job duties.

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is responsible for the creation and enforcement of rules and regulations regarding Massachusetts construction sites. Massachusetts employers must make a reasonable effort to enforce these rules and regulations at all times. Massachusetts general contractors and Massachusetts subcontractors are required to warn Massachusetts employees of all potential hazards inherent to the Massachusetts work site, as well as the work to be performed, and to coordinate job safety and supervise Massachusetts safety compliance at all times. Massachusetts construction companies must also inspect each Massachusetts work site with safety engineers and make safety training programs available to all Massachusetts employees. Unfortunately, due to the nature of the job, even these federally-mandated precautions cannot prevent all Massachusetts work related accidents from occurring.

Massachusetts Job Site Accidents

Thousands of Massachusetts construction site workers, Massachusetts job site workers and Massachusetts work site bystanders are injured or killed in Massachusetts construction site accidents each year. The construction industry employs only six percent of the United States workforce, yet the construction industry accounts for twenty percent of workplace fatalities. According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), United States construction site accidents account for over 1,150 fatal work injuries annually, the most of any industry sector. This means that in one day alone, three people die at a construction site, while countless others are injured.

These statistics clearly illustrate the dangers of working at a Massachusetts construction site or Massachusetts job site. Massachusetts construction site accidents and Massachusetts work site related accidents occur for a variety of reasons. Such Massachusetts accidents can be the result of contact with dangerous equipment, falls, explosions, fires, assaults, strikes from or against foreign objects or exposure to harmful chemicals or other hazardous substances. When a Massachusetts construction site accident occurs, Massachusetts company owners, Massachusetts architects, Massachusetts insurance companies, Massachusetts suppliers and Massachusetts manufacturers can be held liable for injuries resulting from inadequate safety provisions.

Common Types of Massachusetts Construction Site Accidents Include:

Accidents are unfortunately an everyday occurrence at Massachusetts construction sites. Some of the most common Massachusetts construction site accidents involve Massachusetts crane accidents, which can occur when a crane collapses or material inadvertently falls from the crane and injures someone below. Electrocution accidents are the second leading type of construction accidents that lead to wrongful death in the United States. In most cases, Massachusetts electrocution accidents occur when a construction site worker accidentally touches a live wire. All too often, live wires at Massachusetts construction sites are left uncovered or are frayed, and pose an enormous risk to Massachusetts construction site workers because they can be hidden.

Massachusetts machinery accidents are another common accident that unfortunately occur at Massachusetts construction sites on a rather frequent basis. Many Massachusetts construction site workers are ill-equipped to properly control the heavy machinery at construction sites, and this can lead to construction site accidents. In addition, construction machinery may be damaged or in unsuitable condition, which renders the machinery unable to function properly and thus susceptible to causing a Massachusetts construction site accident.

Malfunctioning Massachusetts equipment can also lead to Massachusetts welding accidents, which typically involve welding torches, tanks and masks. These work site accidents can result in skin burns, retinal tears and internal organ burns, and are often incredibly serious injuries.

Massachusetts explosion and fire accidents are some of the most deadly accidents that occur at Massachusetts construction sites. Numerous Massachusetts construction site hazards can lead to a fire or an explosion. Improperly stored compressed gas cylinders, leaky compressed gas cylinders that come into contact with flammable material, and the odorless nature of many of these gases, are extraordinarily risky and have serious potential to lead to a deadly Massachusetts construction site accident.

Massachusetts trench accidents are another common type of Massachusetts construction site accident that often results in serious injury to a Massachusetts construction site worker or pedestrian. Massachusetts trench accidents involve trenches that are dug at construction sites most often as a means to access underground wiring or pipes. Typically, in order to dig a trench, an excavator, hoe or other heavy piece of Massachusetts construction site equipment must be used. An improperly or inadequately trained Massachusetts construction site worker may dig in an area with unstable pavement or soil. In the event that the digging site is not adequately assessed or improper digging equipment is used, Massachusetts construction companies and Massachusetts contractors may be liable for the injuries sustained in a Massachusetts construction site accident.

Some of the most common Massachusetts construction site accident injuries and Massachusetts job site injuries include Massachusetts amputations, Massachusetts bruises, Massachusetts carpal tunnel syndrome, Massachusetts contusions, Massachusetts cuts, Massachusetts fractures, Massachusetts heat burns, Massachusetts lacerations, Massachusetts sprains, Massachusetts strains, Massachusetts burn injuries and Massachusetts tendonitis. Most of these Massachusetts injuries are not fatal; however, for Massachusetts construction workers who work physically demanding jobs, these injuries are life changing problems that can lead to long term unemployment.

Massachusetts Workers’ Compensation

In Massachusetts, an injured employee cannot file a lawsuit against his or her Massachusetts employer for negligence that causes an injury at the workplace. In these cases, the only recourse for Massachusetts accident victims against their employer is to pursue a Massachusetts workers’ compensation claim.

Massachusetts workers’ compensation law is designed to help injured Massachusetts workers,
as well as their employers, in dealing with medical bills and lost wages in the aftermath of a
Massachusetts work related accident. The Massachusetts Workers’ Compensation Act (WCA) provides benefits to Massachusetts workers who are injured while on the job or suffer any other illness or ailment arising out of an accident in the course of their employment. Massachusetts workers’ compensation benefits include monetary payments based on the Massachusetts employee’s weekly wages for temporary and permanent disabilities as a result of their injuries. The Massachusetts benefits also cover the costs of medical bills and rehabilitation expenses which are reasonable and necessary.

Massachusetts Third Party Negligence

Unfortunately, in the case of Massachusetts catastrophic personal injuries or Massachusetts job related wrongful death, Massachusetts worker’s compensation benefits alone may be insufficient compensation. In these cases, it is necessary to look for a third party whose negligence contributed to the Massachusetts construction site accident. Manufacturers of construction equipment are legally responsible for designing and maintaining safe products; however, this is not always the case. Dangerous or defective Massachusetts products may include: Massachusetts boilers, Massachusetts cranes, Massachusetts conveyors, Massachusetts derricks, Massachusetts forklifts, Massachusetts hoists, Massachusetts graters, Massachusetts bulldozers, Massachusetts gas detectors, Massachusetts power tools, Massachusetts scaffolding, Massachusetts ladders, Massachusetts tractors, Massachusetts winchers, Massachusetts pressure vessels and other types of Massachusetts construction equipment. If a Massachusetts manufacturer negligently designs, produces or distributes a defective or dangerous Massachusetts product, they may be liable to Massachusetts victims for any injuries caused by the product.

It is also possible to find other third parties who may be liable in the event of a Massachusetts construction site accident injury. Since most Massachusetts construction work sites involve several Massachusetts subcontractors, it may be possible to locate more than one potential third party defendant. Claims may also be considered against the Massachusetts general contractor in the case of negligent supervision that may render them contractually responsible for the Massachusetts job related injury.
