Houston’s Boom in Construction Causes an Increase in Accidents 

A growing construction economy also means an increase in construction site accidents. These accidents cause injury and sadly sometimes even death.  Construction sites can be extremely dangerous in so many ways from electrical hazards to defective equipment.  All job sites can pose potential unsafe conditions at any given time.  Crews rush their work to meet deadlines and fail to comply with building procedures.  Sometimes safety protocols are not followed and accidents occur.

When you’re hurt in a construction site accident, the immediate response is to summon medical help, take photographs of the accident scene, and gather names of witnesses. In many cases, the victim is too injured to take photos or preserve evidence, and that’s okay. Getting immediate medical attention is the place to begin after a construction accident.
