Common Causes of Construction Site Accidents

From sprawling industrial projects to urban development, Houston has a diverse construction landscape. Each jobsite presents unique dangers for workers. Here are a few common types of injuries workers experience:

• Falls: Commercial and residential projects often involve working at heights, which can lead to falls from scaffolding or other elevated areas. 
• Equipment injuries: Construction sites often utilize heavy machinery, particularly for large-scale infrastructure projects. Malfunctions or accidents could lead to injury.
• Trench collapses: Suburban developments and commercial sites often involve excavation work, which could lead to trench collapses. 

Other dangers on construction sites include electrocution, explosions, and falling objects. Some incidents are preventable, while others are not. In either case, you may be eligible to seek compensation, but the outcome depends on the details of your situation.
