Accident Lawyers
Accidents on construction sites happen quite frequently. These accidents may result in the death or injury of workers, as well as people visiting, children, and those who work or sit in the area. The construction litigation attorneys in Miami, Florida, at Silva & Silva, have handled a large number of lawsuits in this field.
Construction Site Safety Provisions
All land developers and construction firms must conduct comprehensive site inspections. They must implement safety programs, hire safety engineers, and provide the required training to their employees. These steps are necessary to maintain construction site safety.
When an accident happens on a building site, the landlords, builders, engineering technicians, manufacturing companies, subcontractors, planners, insurers, and equipment leasing companies may be held liable for failing to maintain proper site safeguards or appropriate safety equipment and tools.
How Accidents on Construction Sites Occur
Several examples of harmful or defective products that result in construction site accidents are as follows:
• Trucks
• Power tools
• Hoses
• Cranes
• Scaffolds
• Ladders
• Other
In some instances, hazardous working conditions can result in falling objects that can be fatal. Crane operators may be negligent, and heavy cranes colliding with hanging power lines can potentially electrocute innocent bystanders.
