Work Injuries due to OSHA Violations
Did you, or someone you care about, suffer a work injury as the result of a violation of OSHA regulations? Violations of safety standards and resulting unsafe working conditions are common in every type of workplace, ranging from offices to construction sites. OSHA standards apply to every aspect of the environment, including:
- Toxic chemical and hazardous material storage
- Fire protection, sprinklers, alarms, emergency exits and emergency plans
- Protective equipment, safety glasses/goggles and protective clothing
- Readily accessible first aid, medical treatment equipment and when appropriate, eye wash and shower stations
- Required equipment maintenance
- Guardrails on walkways and scaffolding
A work injury resulting from an OSHA violation may entitle the victim to claims in addition to New Jersey Workers' Compensation. If the injury or occupational disease was fatal, survivors may be entitled to a wrongful death lawsuit. At The Law Office of John F. Marshall our attorneys handle all types of injury and workers' compensation claims.
