An industrial accident describes injuries and illnesses occurring within the construction industry or manufacturing industry.
Common industrial accidents that can result in worker injuries and deaths include, but are not limited to:
Industrial accidents may take place at many different locations. Common locations for industrial accidents include plants, warehouses, construction sites, refineries, ships, mills, and factories.
Industrial accidents often cause catastrophic injuries and permanent disabilities. Working with heavy machinery and with hazardous materials increases the risk of death and traumatic injuries.
Examples of industrial accident injuries include:
A worker who is injured in an industrial accident may never work again. They may face years of painful therapy and never recover from their injuries fully. Construction fatalities can permanently affect the lives of surviving family members.
The economic losses (i.e., treatment, care, and lost wages) can total millions of dollars throughout a person’s lifetime. However, the non-economic losses or pain and suffering damages can be even more significant. A person may never enjoy life the way they did before the industrial accident.
You must uncover how the injury or accident occurred before you can identify who is liable for damages. Common causes of industrial accidents include:
Many workplace accidents are covered by workers’ compensation insurance. In most cases, a worker cannot sue an employer when workers’ compensation covers an injury. However, if the employer was grossly negligent or intentionally placed the worker in danger, the employer could be liable for damages outside the workers’ compensation system.
Manufacturers of defective equipment could also be liable for an industrial accident. In addition, a management company or property owner may be liable for your losses.
Our New York City industrial accident lawyers meticulously search for all parties with potential liability for your damages. We want to ensure each party is held accountable for their portion of the wrongdoing that caused your injury.
Injured industrial workers deserve fair compensation for their injuries and damages. At the Law Offices of Jay S. Knispel Personal Injury Lawyers our legal team fights to hold negligent parties accountable for their actions.
