Massachusetts Construction Site Injury Lawyer

The work related injury lawyers at the law firm of John S. Moffa, assist clients with personal injury claims regarding construction site injuries. We represent clients in Barnstable and Bristol counties, and in the communities of Falmouth, New Bedford, and Cape Cod.

The Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 was created in order to provide men and women with safe work environments. OSHA set up strict health and safety standards and enacted training programs to ensure the safety of employees across the country. When an employee is injured on the job , the contractor is held liable because he or she is responsible for the safety of the employees. Falls are the most common construction-related accident, although there are many other workplace hazards, including:

• Electrocution
• Scaffolding accident
• Exposure to toxic fumes
• Forklift accident
• Slip and fall injury
• Being hit by objects
• Accidents involving machinery
• Accidents caused by debris

Blindness, amputation, head injuries, fractured bones, scarring and disfigurement are some of the serious injuries that may result from construction site accidents.
