Common Electrician Accidents
Electricians face various risks on the job, all of which can lead to accidents. Some of the most common accidents we’ve witnessed in this career over the past decade include:
- Electrical shocks
- Burns from contact with live wires
- Explosions from faulty equipment
- Falls from ladders or scaffolds
- Repetitive strain injuries
- Cuts and bruises from tools and materials
When Can an Electrician File a Claim?
An electrician can file a claim if they've been injured due to unsafe working conditions, lack of proper training, defective equipment, negligence on the part of their employer or another party, or anything along those lines.
Key to filing a successful claim is proving that the injury was work-related and that there was a failure by the employer or any other responsible party to provide a safe working environment or adequate safety measures.
What If the Electrician Was a Company Employee?
If the electrician was a company employee and got injured on the job, they are typically covered by workers' compensation insurance. Mind you, Morgan and Morgan files the most employment-related lawsuits in America. When it comes to fighting for the rights of employees in the country, no other injury firm does it better than us.
Workers’ compensation insurance provides benefits regardless of who was at fault for the accident. It covers medical expenses, a portion of lost wages, and rehabilitation costs.
Keep in mind that when you receive workers' compensation, more than half of the time, it means you cannot sue the employer for negligence. That’s also a good reason to seek legal advice before deciding how best to proceed with your claim.
