If you are injured on a construction site, the owners, architects, insurance companies and manufacturers of equipment can be held responsible.  The general contractor and all subcontractors are required to provide a reasonably safe worksite and are required to warn workers of any hazards inherent in the site and the type of work being performed.  They are also required to hire careful employees, to coordinate job safety and to supervise compliance with safety specifications.  Construction site claims are usually complex and are expensive to bring to trial.

On most construction sites there are many different companies performing work.  Different companies can include: the owner, the architect, engineers, contractors and various subcontractors for different trades.  Each of them can be held responsible for your injuries.
