The Fatal Four Construction Accidents

OSHA, the organization responsible for holding companies accountable for unsafe conditions, conducts an annual census of fatal occupational injuries. Every year, the same four incidents are at the top of the list of construction fatalities.

Dubbed the "Fatal Four," these incidents are:

  • Falls
  • Electrocution
  • Being struck by an object
  • Getting caught between objects

What ties these incidents together is preventability. Up to 500 workers' lives could be saved every year if safety protocol were strictly followed. The most common of the Fatal Four, falling, often occurs as a direct result of unsafe scaffolding.

What Could an Injured Worker Hold an Employer Responsible For?

  • Unsafe or poorly-constructed walkways
  • Inadequate hiring or training of workers
  • Forcing workers to work on an unsafe timetable
  • Improperly-maintained dangerous equipment

Who Is Liable for Construction Accidents?

Responsibility for construction accidents can fall upon a range of parties. Primarily, employers bear the crucial responsibility of ensuring a safe working environment. A lapse in this duty is often a leading cause of workplace accidents. Additionally, liability may extend to other workers whose actions or negligence contribute to an accident. Manufacturers of defective or unsafe equipment can also be held accountable. Property owners and various contracted companies operating on the job site may also share responsibility for ensuring safety and can be liable in the event of an accident. 

Are Construction Accidents a Sign of Negligence?

Yes. Since construction workers face some of the most dangerous work conditions in the nation, employers must protect them at all opportunities. Federal and state laws require employers to create the safest work environment possible for their workers. When they fail to mitigate known hazards, they should be held accountable for their negligence.

What Can a Miami Construction Accident Lawyer Help Me Recover?
