Falls From Heights at a Construction Site
People who work on construction sites often find themselves in situations where they must perform their jobs hundreds of feet off the ground. If proper precautions are not taken to ensure the safety of construction workers, it could put everyone on the site at extreme risk of serious injuries.
Construction companies are required to provide harnesses, adequate scaffolding, safe catwalks or other methods of passage, and any other safety equipment required to protect against construction site falls. When proper equipment is not provided and accidents happen, injury victims have the right to seek compensation from the construction company and any other negligent parties.
If you or a loved one has suffered a serious injury that resulted from a severe fall on a construction site, it is important that you seek the advice of an experienced Illinois Joliet worker injury attorney as soon as possible.
