Causes Of Construction Accidents
Construction accidents in Chicago often stem from multiple safety failures that could have been prevented with proper precautions and oversight. The most frequent causes we encounter in construction injury cases include:
- Inadequate fall protection systems and equipment
- Poor communication between work crews
- Improper maintenance of machinery and tools
- Unsafe storage of materials and supplies
- Lack of proper worker training and supervision
- Violations of OSHA safety regulations
These preventable conditions put workers at risk every day on Chicago construction sites. Our team thoroughly investigates each case to document safety violations and establish liability.
Construction Site Injuries
The severe nature of construction accidents often leads to devastating injuries that impact workers and their families. Construction workers who suffer injuries on Chicago job sites frequently face:
- Traumatic brain injuries and head trauma
- Spinal cord damage and paralysis
- Crush injuries from equipment or materials
- Multiple fractures and joint injuries
- Severe burns and electrical injuries
- Loss of limbs from machinery accidents
These injuries require extensive medical treatment and rehabilitation, often preventing workers from returning to their jobs. We fight to secure compensation that covers both immediate and long-term medical needs.
Understanding Your Rights
Illinois law provides multiple avenues for injured construction workers to seek compensation beyond standard workers compensation benefits. Property owners, general contractors, subcontractors and equipment manufacturers may share liability when their negligence contributes to accidents.
