Workers’ compensation can help injured construction workers

Construction accidents are harrowing because they happen to men and women who are only trying to earn a living. It is very difficult for construction workers to stay completely safe as they work. There are a lot of hazards on these construction sites. This includes the heavy machinery, working at considerable heights and various electrical components.

Interestingly, it has come to light that the number of construction zone inspections is decreasing. While this is occurring, the number of construction accidents is rising. This is a troubling trend in New York that must be carefully considered because the people who keep the city’s structures up to par are suffering. We find this very disturbing and think that action needs to be taken to rectify the situation.
