Helping Injured Workers Get the Compensation They Deserve

Construction sites are a hub of activity with many different contractors and subcontractors working alongside one another. With so many moving parts, it is no surprise that construction sites are among the most dangerous workplaces in the country. Workers on construction sites are at risk of being injured by heavy machinery, tools, falling objects, and falling from high places. They may also be exposed to toxic chemicals, high noise levels, and other hazards.

If you have been injured in a construction accident, you may be entitled to workers’ compensation benefits. You may also be able to file a personal injury lawsuit against a third party. The experienced attorneys at Pacific Workers' can help you understand your rights and fight to get you the compensation you deserve. We are committed to helping injured workers get the benefits they need to recover from their injuries. Our attorneys can handle all of the paperwork and deal with the insurance company so you can focus on your recovery.

Common Construction Site Accidents

Thousands of construction site accidents occur every year in California. Many of these accidents are caused by the negligence of others on the construction site. When a construction worker is injured on the job, they may be entitled to workers’ compensation benefits. In some cases, they may also be able to file a personal injury lawsuit against a third party.

Some of the most common construction site accidents in the Bay Area include:

• Falls from scaffolding, ladders, and roofs
• Being struck by falling objects
• Electrocution
• Being caught in between objects
• Being struck by a vehicle

Workers who are injured on construction sites are also at risk of developing occupational illnesses. These illnesses develop over time due to long-term exposure to hazardous materials. For example, construction workers who are exposed to asbestos may develop mesothelioma, a type of lung cancer.

Additionally, they are exposed to loud noise and may develop hearing loss. Workers who are exposed to toxic chemicals may develop cancer, lung disease, or other health problems.
