How to Prove Negligence As the Cause of Your Accident

According to OSHA, violation of proper construction site standards is often the cause of the above-mentioned injuries. These standards are put in place for the protection of workers and pedestrians, so when they are violated they can have catastrophic results. If you believe your injury was caused as a result of negligence, you may have grounds for a personal injury claim. 

Some common examples of negligence in construction include:

  • Failure to maintain proper fall protection
  • Failure to follow standards regarding scaffolding, ladders, machinery usage, and eye and face protection
  • Failure to maintain proper control of hazardous energy, as well as provide proper respiratory protection
