Generally speaking, if your accident occurred in the course of your work as a construction worker, you will be entitled to workers’ compensation benefits, but you may also be entitled to file a personal injury claim under certain circumstances.(Construction Accident Third-Party Injury Claim). As a member of the general public injured by a falling object at a construction site, you will likely be able to recover compensation for both your economic and non-economic losses, including lost income, medical expenses, property damage, and physical and emotional pain and suffering.
