What Are the Most Common Dangers on Anchorage Work Sites?
Nearly every item, tool or machine on a construction site is capable of causing injury. Workers routinely experience injuries due to falls, falling objects, crushing and exposure to dangerous materials.
The most common causes of work site deaths are:
- Falls
- Falling and moving objects
- Electrocutions
- And workers getting caught or stuck in-between surfaces
Our attorneys work to get injured workers and their families justice regardless of the cause of the accident.
Understanding Compensation in Construction Injury Cases
Those who have been hurt on Alaska work sites will have different legal rights and remedies depending on the cause of their injury. Depending on who is responsible for the actions or conditions that caused your injury, our attorneys will either be able to help you file a workers’ compensation claim or bring a third-party claim against a negligent party.
Workers’ Compensation in Alaska Work Site Accident Claims
Workers’ compensation is the standard way for injured workers to get their medical bills and other costs paid. Although it applies slightly differently in each state, it generally works by covering medical bills and partial wages for the duration of the time that you are injured.
It is available to those who have been injured on the job and is generally the only way workers can bring a claim against their employers for injuries. Workers’ compensation is a no-fault system, meaning that a worker can recover whether their employer was negligent or not.
There may be limits on which doctors you can visit, how much you can recover per week and the duration of payments. Our Anchorage workman’s comp attorneys strive to get injured construction workers justice and the benefits they are entitled to under Alaska law.
