Every controlled demolition involves the work of many dedicated professionals. Everyone involved in the demolition of a building must have a clear understanding of his or her role. Even in the best of circumstances, demolishing a building involves some level of risk. Despite the risks inherent in the job, those overseeing a demolition project are required to follow all appropriate safety regulations in order to minimize the risk of injury. The slightest misstep or mistake can cause serious injuries and even death. Demolition workers face any number of potential injuries, including:
- Being struck by falling objects, projectiles or other debris
- Becoming trapped in an imploding structure
- Falling off ladders or scaffolds
Construction Demolition Injury Attorneys
New York has numerous laws and regulations that protect demolition workers. For instance, Labor Law 241 requires contractors and owners to provide reasonable and adequate protection for workers. If either contractors or owners fail to comply with this law or other safety regulations, they may be liable for all damages from the construction accident. These expenses may include medical bills, lost wages and pain and suffering.
