Bay Area Construction Accident Attorney
On most construction sites there is a multitude of things going on at the same time. With so much activity combined with inherently dangerous equipment and hazardous materials, it’s no surprise that safety is often an issue. If all individuals on a construction site – both construction workers and non-construction workers – don’t adhere to the proper safety precautions, serious injuries or even death can occur in a construction accident.
On average, injury rates in construction are 71% higher than injury rates across all other industries. This is even more alarming considering that The Center for Construction Research and Training (CPWR) found that more than 25% of construction workers have indicated that they failed to report a work-related injury. And according to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), one in five U.S. worker deaths a year take place in the construction industry.
Unfortunately, things don’t seem to be getting any better. The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) found that in 2019 fatalities in the private construction industry increased by 5% to 1,061 – the largest total since 2007.

While there are a variety of accidents that occur on construction sites, some of the most common ones include:
- Falls (account for 33% of all construction deaths);
- Scaffolding accidents;
- Individuals being struck by falling objects;
- Crane accidents;
- Slip, trip, and fall accidents;
- Defective/dangerous machinery;
- Chemical exposure;
- Electrocution;
- Trenching and excavation accidents;
- Welding accidents;
- Transportation accidents (individuals getting hit or pinned by auto vehicles); and
- Nail gun accidents.

- Lacerations;
- Back and neck injuries;
- Spinal cord injuries;

- Traumatic brain injuries (TBI);
