Defective Or Missing Safety Gear = An Ironworker’s Employer’s Negligence Or A Third-Party Liability Claim
The building owner and your employer are both potentially liable after an ironworker accident. Above and beyond workers’ compensation, we may be able to obtain further compensation for you if:
- Your employer or supervisor did not provide proper safety equipment or did not enforce the use of it.
- Safety netting was not in place.
- Ladders or scaffolding were defective.
- Tools or equipment were defective.
- A third party other than your employer committed an error that resulted in your accident.
