Immediate Investigations And OSHA Regulations

Construction companies, property owners and workers know that certain regulations are in place to ensure the safety of workers. Workers’ compensation covers most employees, as all corporations, LLCs and even sole proprietorships with employees must maintain workers’ compensation insurance in New Jersey. If you were involved in an accident, it is important to have an independent investigation of the accident scene as soon as possible. Our attorneys will consult with witnesses, take photographs, and work with experts to determine the cause of the accident and identify every party at fault.

A violation of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulations could be evidence of negligence and should be used to assess any case. An OSHA investigation into the cause of the incident could reveal underlying causes that resulted in your injury, providing additional evidence to support your workers’ compensation claim. These investigations can involve either an off-site investigation or an on-site evaluation of where your injury occurred.

• Scaffolding : Scaffolding injuries typically involve falls or collapses of the scaffold structure, leading to severe injuries such as broken bones, spinal injuries, or traumatic brain injuries.
• Lifting : Lifting injuries are common on construction sites and can include muscle strains, sprains, and herniated discs, often resulting from improper lifting techniques or handling of heavy materials.
• Slip-and-falls : These accidents refer to incidents where individuals slip, trip, or fall due to unsafe conditions on the site, such as wet floors, uneven surfaces or debris. Injuries can range from minor bruises to serious fractures or head injuries.
• Equipment : Equipment-related injuries can occur from the misuse or failure of tools and machinery, including power tools and electrical equipment. These injuries can lead to cuts, electrocution or more severe outcomes depending on the equipment involved.
• Work : General work-related injuries encompass a variety of incidents that occur during routine construction activities, including overexertion, exposure to harmful substances or accidents during transportation of materials.

We understand the complexities and challenges of filing a construction accident claim in New Jersey. The New Jersey workers’ compensation process can be daunting, often because insurance companies are inclined to minimize claims to reduce payouts. Many barriers can occur to getting your claim processed and obtaining your benefits, which is why you need an advocate on your side. Our seasoned workers’ comp attorneys are here to navigate these hurdles, ensuring that your claim is thoroughly prepared and vigorously pursued to secure the full compensation you deserve for your injuries and losses.

Third-Party Injury Claims Involving Construction Sites

While most victims and families know that they can collect workers’ comp for medical expenses and lost wages, many do not realize that they may be entitled to additional compensation for pain and suffering and other personal losses as well. We will pursue every avenue of recovery to ensure that you recover maximum financial support to help you find security in the healing process.
