Scaffolding Accidents, Falls

Phoenix, Arizona, Scaffolding Accident Injury Lawyer

Installing scaffolding correctly and using proper safety techniques on a construction site are among a site manager's primary responsibilities. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, a construction site is the most dangerous place to work in America, with more than 1,200 construction workers killed on the job in 2006, and many thousands more injured.

In fact, one in 10 American construction workers will be injured in a scaffolding accident, a fall from a roof or other type of construction site accident in any given year. In many cases, proper preparation of the site, correct installation of the scaffolding and close supervision and training of construction workers could prevent the accident from occurring.
