While welding may seem dangerous to many (and in some cases it can be), it's important to understand that modern safety and worker protection standards exist to protect welders from such foreseeable occupational injuries. Unfortunately, accidents still happen. Negligence on the work site (by the employer, supervisor, etc) can leave workers burned, seriously injured, or even killed. In fact, it’s estimated that there are more than 500,000 welding injuries on a year-to-year basis.
If you’ve been hurt in a Dallas-area welding accident, please call Rasansky Law Firm today for a free consultation, and learn the legal options available to you and your family.
It’s important to note that OSHA usually provides safety guidelines that all employers need to adhere to in order to make a welder’s workplace as safe and as secure as possible.
Additionally, if your injuries were caused by defective or faulty equipment, you may need to file a product liability claim against the manufacturer.
Let’s take a look at some of the common welding injuries faced by workers in this industry:
Welding injuries are usually serious, and are sometimes even life-threatening. These injuries will generally put the welder out of work for some time, and often necessitate a claim for lost wages in addition to your personal injury claim.
