What are my rights if I am injured while working on a construction site?
If you are injured while working on a construction site, you are entitled to workers compensation benefits (see below). You may also be entitled to sue any responsible party other than your employer for money damages. Typically, these types of lawsuits involve claims against the general contractors, project owners, and/or project supervisors, who are responsible for overall workplace safety on a construction site.
