Construction site accidents can have far-reaching consequences, impacting the lives of workers and their families. The construction industry was second in workplace fatalities in 2023, according to Maryland Occupational Safety and Health data.
A construction injury claim in Maryland involves a combination of workers’ compensation law, consideration of third-party negligence, and statutes of limitations.
Maryland’s workers’ comp laws provide a safety net for employees who are injured on the job. Most Maryland employers are legally required to provide workers’ compensation insurance. An injured construction worker can file a workers’ compensation claim to receive benefits, including medical expense coverage, rehabilitation support, and wage replacement during recovery, without the need to prove fault.
However, workers’ compensation has limitations. While it provides prompt financial relief to injured workers, it may not cover all incurred expenses. Emotional distress and certain long-term damages aren’t always covered.Â
Third-party liability claims are common in construction accidents. Construction sites involve numerous contractors, subcontractors, equipment manufacturers, and other parties. If the negligence of a third party contributed to the accident, you may have the right to pursue personal injury damages not covered by workers’ compensation. Maryland’s harsh contributory negligence standard may factor into a third-party claim.
Third-party lawsuits can include:
Maryland’s statute of limitations for construction accidents is generally three years from the date of the accident. If you don’t file by this deadline, you may lose your opportunity to recover compensation.
The sooner you consult with a Maryland construction accident lawyer, the better. Your lawyer will need to conduct a thorough investigation, gather evidence, and prove liability before filing your claim. Waiting might compromise the quality of evidence and witnesses’ recollections.
