Chattanooga Workers' Compensation Lawyer

Johnny L. Woodruff, Attorney at Law

As with most other American workers, construction employees are entitled, by law, to a workplace that is free of unreasonable hazards and foreseeable accidents as defined by the Occupational Safety and Health Act. Government statistics indicate, however, that workers in the construction industry run a higher risk of personal injury than most others. The Federal Bureau of Labor Statistics indicates that in 2004, the construction industry had the second highest number of workplace fatalities. The FBLS also indicates that in that same year, the construction industry was responsible for an above average number of days lost due to sickness or injury.
