When construction accidents occur, it is often because of the negligence of the people/person responsible for the safety of the construction site, including the supervisors, contractors, or the property owners. Safety inspectors often check for the safety of the site. Sometimes the hazardous materials, equipment and surfaces may get overlooked, and can be hazardous to a worker and/or bystander’s safety. Some construction companies are willing to neglect safety measures in an attempt to maximize their profit. This puts their workers and innocent bystanders in danger and the result can be serious injury or even death.
