Construction Accident Lawyer Comments On Death of Texas Worker

May 30, 2016 – – LipsigLawyers.com’s Thomas Moverman recently commented on the death of a Texas construction worker, stating that his death is both a tragedy and a sobering reminder of the dangers construction workers face on the job daily.

According to an Associated Press article published by mySA, workers placed a large wooden box on a forklift hoist and two workers then climbed inside. As the box was being moved to the second floor of the construction site, it became unsteady and fell to the ground. One worker managed to jump out into the second floor of the building in enough time to escape injury but the other fell to the ground and was killed after the box fell on top of him, the article said.

According to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, more than 20 percent of all work-related fatalities in 2013 were employed in the construction industry. Other injuries can include lacerations, broken or fractured bones, brain injuries and spinal injuries. These ailments typically occur as a result of different kinds of accidents. Most common on construction sites are accidents including slips, trips and falls, scaffolding accidents and ladder falls.
