Construction Site and Workplace Accidents

New England Construction Accident Attorneys Dedicated to Getting You Compensation for Your injuries

The construction industry employs millions of people, some of whom receive little or no training before entering a jobsite. Construction work is one of the most dangerous areas of employment, with thousands of workers hurt on the job every year.

Many of these injuries are the result of management's failure to maintain a safe jobsite. Some of these injuries are the result of defective equipment. Other injuries are the result of carelessness or negligence on the part of a general contractor or subcontractor, by failing to properly inspect the jobsite, failing to provide safe machinery or tools, or failing to provide workers with adequate fall protection equipment.

The safety of the worksite is the responsibility of the general contractor. Unsafe construction sites can lead to wrongful deaths, as well as catastrophic injuries from head and back injuries in falls, electrocution injuries, crushing or asphyxiation in cave-ins, or injuries after being struck by a delivery vehicle or heavy equipment.

Safety is everyone's job on the construction site, but it is particularly the job of construction management to ensure that proper safety procedures are in-place and safety equipment is available, especially when scaffolding is being used. Serious injuries from falls off scaffolding can be prevented at work.

At the Boston law office of Swartz & Swartz, our personal injury attorneys have been representing victims of construction accidents and industrial accidents for more than three decades. We have the background and experience you need to take on large construction companies and manufacturers whose negligence can lead to injuries and losses.
