Are there regulations and laws regarding workplace safety that may be relevant to liability in a construction accident?
Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) regulations govern workplace safety, and a violation of these rules can be a basis for a finding of negligence against a party to a construction accident claim. There are other state regulations that may also be relevant. An experienced Georgia construction accident attorney will be familiar with the laws and regulations that apply to construction sites and will be able to determine if a violation of these regulations may constitute a basis for imposing liability in a third party lawsuit.
