Hurt in a Machine or Heavy Equipment Accident?
New York’s Labor Law § 240 imposes liability on construction companies for heavy equipment accidents. Construction companies can be held responsible for an equipment accident even if they were unaware of the dangerous condition. This imposes a duty on the companies to regularly inspect equipment and make sure items are maintained in safe working condition.
When a machine is not correctly operated or maintained, construction and maintenance workers face a significant risk of serious bodily injury.
