Seeking Compensation for Inadequate Safety Equipment and Procedures
Construction workers are frequently required to perform their duties in high places and other locations with significant drop-offs, including scaffolds, ladders, elevator and service shafts, cranes, and ditches. All of these circumstances create a risk of serious, potentially fatal falls.
Proper fall protection equipment — including harnesses, guardrails and safety nets — are required to be used to protect workers from falling and suffering severe injuries.
Under New York law, on many construction sites, general contractors and property owners are the parties responsible for making sure that appropriate fall protection systems are in place and workers are not being asked to do their jobs in an unsafe manner.
