On the Job Injuries
Austin, Texas (TX)
Whether on a small home improvement project at an individual's home or
on a major commercial development, the construction worker is faced with
some of the most dangerous working conditions in the United States.
Deadly work-related injuries on construction sites occur every day in
Austin and throughout Texas. Despite state and federal regulations,
safety inspections and job safety programs - construction project
injuries and deaths continue to plague the industry. Construction
accidents continue to occur on a regular basis due in part to the nature
of the work itself and a variety of common-place hazards. The hazards
include falling from un-netted high-beams, scaffolds and other high
elevations. Everyday individuals are being injured and killed when
struck by moving, falling or shifting machinery, electrocutions,
exposure to asbestos, exposure to hazardous chemicals, defective or
unsafe equipment and injuries caused by lifting and/or repetitive motion
type injuries. If you or your loved one has suffered injuries or a
wrongful death as the result of a construction accident in Austin, call
