How to Proceed After a Scaffolding Accident
Scaffolds are highly regulated by federal and state government entities, such as OSHA (the Occupational Safety and Health Administration). When a construction employee is injured in a scaffolding accident, it is important that the scene is investigated as soon as possible, in order to preserve critical evidence and identify the cause.
Scaffolding accidents can result in numerous serious and life-threatening injuries, such as:
- Head and brain injuries
- Severe fractures
- Neck and back injuries
- Knee, shoulder and joint injuries
- Wrongful death
