Injuries in the workplace are not uncommon, but when you work in construction, these injuries can lead to long-term struggles or interfere with your ability to work.

Types of Injury You Could Sustain From A Construction Accident

No matter how you sustain an injury at work, it is important to seek proper medical attention after your injury. When working in the construction industry, you can suffer different injuries, including but not limited to:

• Falls – meaning both trips, and falls from a height, when working in construction, falls are a leading cause of long-term injury.
• Machinery Accidents –  when working around heavy machinery, such as cranes, bulldozers, or power tools, impact based and long-term use injuries are common. 
• Electrocution – if you are working around exposed live wires, or faulty electrical equipment, you have a high chance of electrocution at work. This can lead to burns, or even nerve damage.
• Cuts and Lacerations – when working around sharp objects, glass, or industrial cutting equipment, there is a chance that you may experience a cut or laceration at work.

What Injuries Can Make a Construction Accident Claim?

If you have suffered any of the above injury types, or perhaps even something less common, when working on a construction site, you could be eligible to make a construction accident compensation claim. The following injuries are some of the common injury types people claim compensation for in the construction industry:

• Fractures and bone breaks
• Burns
• Cuts and lacerations
• Head or brain trauma
• Amputation, or injury leading to amputation
• Loss of sense, such as damage to the sight, tinnitus, or nerve damage
• Psychological trauma, such as PTSD

The full impact of your injury may not present itself immediately, so it’s important to keep logs and evidence of your ongoing condition. Regardless of when your symptoms begin to show, the injuries you can suffer from a construction accident can impact your life, so it’s important to ask for legal advice.

With this in mind, it is key to get the construction injury claim compensation you are owed. Contact our team of personal injury specialists to gain the ongoing support you need while getting the compensation you deserve.
