Construction sites are dangerous places and serious accidents can happen, regardless of the strict safety standards that most construction companies follow.  In addition to endangering the safety of the workers at construction sites, hazardous conditions can also injure passersby.

Unfortunately, construction site injuries are not uncommon and can occur in a variety of ways. These are just a few of the potential ways someone can become injured at a construction site:

- Slip and falls
- Roofing accidents
- Misuse of tools
- Defective equipment
- Falling objects
- Electrical accidents
- Misuse of safety restraints
- Power tool mishaps
- Fires and explosions
- Scaffolding accidents
- Being struck by operating equipment
- Welding accidents

When construction accidents occur, they are often caused by the negligence of those responsible for the safety of the site, including contractors, site supervisors, and property owners. Construction companies need to do their job by having sites checked by safety inspectors for potentially hazardous materials, surfaces, and equipment. Sadly, inspectors may overlook some issues and allow construction to take place on a site that is hazardous to a worker’s safety as well as the safety of bystanders. Thus, many companies put their workers and innocent bystanders in danger and the result can be serious injury or even death.

There are many different areas of law that construction accidents may be covered under, depending on the circumstances involved.
