Construction Site Safety Provisions
All developers and construction companies are required to conduct thorough and professional site inspections. They must implement safety programs, hire safety engineers, and ensure that the employees receive the necessary training.
When an accident occurs on a construction site, the owners, developers, engineering technicians, manufacturers, subcontractors, architects, insurers, and/or tool & equipment lessors may be held legally responsible for failure to maintain adequate safeguards at the site or the necessary safety equipment and tools.
How Construction Site Accidents Occur
The following are some examples of dangerous or defective products that frequently cause construction site accidents:
- Hoses
- Power tools
- Cranes
- Scaffolds
- Trucks
- Ladders
- Other
In some cases, unsafe working conditions can lead to falling objects, which can be life-threatening. Operators of cranes may be careless and the equipment colliding with power lines can electrocute innocent bystanders.
