Construction
Accidents
Accidents at a construction site may happen in a variety of ways.
A ladder or scaffold may not have been constructed properly and may
break apart upon use causing severe injuries. Debris may have been
left in walkways or on steps. Debris may also fall from a scaffold,
ladder, building or construction equipment.
The owner of a building site must exercise “reasonable care”
to maintain a construction site. This includes ensuring that construction
sites are safe and clean.
Manufactures have a duty to insure that ladders and scaffolds are
safe for use. Owners of ladders and scaffolds also have duties to
properly maintain them and ensure that they are properly erected and
utilized. In fact, the owner of a ladder or scaffold may be responsible
for your injuries even if you believe that you may have caused your
injuries.
