Injury on a construction site

Construction worker accidents and what to do after

Personal Injury Guide

  • February 13, 2021
  • , Slip & Fall

Construction site injuries can be severe for some people, and it is important to know more about construction site injuries if you work in this field. If you do experience injuries on a construction site, you might consider talking to a litigation attorney to determine if you are eligible for assistance and advocacy. This support can go a long way in helping you to recover.

Physical Labor Injuries

Construction workers deal with heavy and long hours of physical labor, which causes body and mind fatigue in an area of staying highly alert.

  • Repetitive motion injuries
  • Dehydration
  • Lack of sleep 
  • Heat stress that could cause heart, kidney or brain damage
  • Overuse-related joint and muscle damage
  • Frostbite or hypothermia

Inhaling Toxic Chemicals

On construction sites, it is possible to breathe in a variety of chemicals that could cause different respiratory diseases.  These could include serious diseases, such as asbestosis, silicosis or pneumoconiosis. See our construction injury page to learn more about these cases.

 

On a construction site, there is a potential for lead exposure, and this can lead to many potentially serious health issues. The most common symptoms of lead poisoning might include high blood pressure, headache, mood disorders, muscle and joint pain, abdominal pain, concentration, and memory difficulties.
