Construction Accident Compensation Claims

All industries pose a certain level of risk to workers, but construction is one of the most dangerous professions. Each year, thousands of people are injured whilst working in construction and quite often it is poor practice and lack of safety that is found to be the cause.

Accidents in the construction industry include:

• Falls from scaffolding, ladders and other high-level areas of work such as roofs
• Being hit by falling loads or equipment
• Being struck by moving vehicles
• Injuries caused by lifting heavy loads
• Faulty plant and machinery injuries
• Electrocution
• Burns
• Inhalation injuries
• Asbestos-related injuries

According to hse.gov.uk, 3% of construction workers sustain a work-related injury each year and 35 workers were fatally injured in the construction sector in 2014/15.

Construction Work Injury Compensation 

As building sites are dangerous places to work, the Health and Safety Executive subjects all construction sites to particular scrutiny. What this means is that injuries that are sustained on a construction site are usually caused by health and safety regulations not being followed.
