Common Causes Behind Job Site Accidents

Every single year, thousands of laborers suffer serious harm on building sites throughout New Jersey and Pennsylvania, with far too many losing their lives to preventable hazards. In fact, construction work consistently ranks among the most dangerous occupations in the region, accounting for a heavy percentage of overall workplace fatalities annually.

Federal safety guidelines highlight four primary dangers that cause the majority of job site deaths nationwide, often referred to by safety inspectors as the primary hazard group. This dangerous group includes falls from heights, electrocutions, getting struck by falling objects, and getting caught between heavy equipment or structures. Together, these recurring dangers cause more than half of all construction-related worker deaths across the country each year.

Why do these traumatic events keep happening on job sites in Cherry Hill and the surrounding region? The uncomfortable truth is that contractors, property owners, and equipment managers often skip mandatory safety checks, rush deadlines, or ignore state regulations.

Some of the most frequent causes behind severe job site incidents include:

• Poor hiring practices, along with a total lack of worker training and site supervision
• Failure to equip workers with proper safety harnesses, hard hats, and protective gear
• Missing guardrails, safety nets, or fall-arrest systems on high work platforms
• Poorly maintained machinery, tools, and heavy vehicles
• Defective manufacturing in power tools, ladders, or structural rigging
• Unstable scaffolding systems and improperly set up ladders
• Pushing workers to physical exhaustion without adequate breaks
• Hazardous, cluttered, or poorly lit work environments
• Direct violations of OSHA and New Jersey state construction safety codes

Regardless of the legal paths open to you, discovering the exact cause of your injury is a foundational part of building your case. Our attorneys conduct detailed investigations, gather job site records, collect witness statements, and bring in industry experts to show exactly what went wrong.

When it comes time to demand compensation, we construct a clear claim that proves who was at fault and demonstrates the full financial impact of your losses.

Are You Entitled To Workers’ Compensation After A Job Site Injury?

In almost every case, yes. Both New Jersey and Pennsylvania mandate that construction companies and general contractors carry workers’ compensation insurance to cover their employees.

If you are an official employee who suffered harm while performing duties related to your job, you generally qualify for these no-fault benefits. Accidents on active construction sites almost always fit these exact legal requirements.

While workers’ compensation provides helpful basic coverage for immediate care, the payouts are strictly capped and do not cover everything you lose. To recover full compensation for your losses, it is vital to examine every potential third-party claim. This means filing a personal injury lawsuit against negligent parties other than your direct employer, such as property owners, architects, general contractors, sub-contractors, or equipment manufacturers.

While state workers’ compensation rules generally protect your direct employer from a direct lawsuit, a third-party claim lets you seek both economic and non-economic damages, including:

• Complete reimbursement for past and future medical care
• Full lost wages and loss of future earning power
• Total and permanent disability support
• In-home nursing care and physical assistance
• Specialized rehabilitation and physical therapy costs
• Funeral and burial costs in wrongful death matters
• Physical pain and suffering
• Deep emotional distress and anxiety
• Physical scarring and permanent disfigurement
• Loss of marital companionship and support

You have a strict timeframe to pursue financial recovery after suffering an injury or losing a loved one on a job site. Under New Jersey law, workers’ compensation claims must be filed within two years of the injury date or the last benefit payment. Standard personal injury lawsuits in both New Jersey and Pennsylvania also carry a strict two-year statute of limitations from the date the accident occurred, meaning a delay can permanently bar you from recovering compensation.
