The roofing industry is one of the toughest and most dangerous to work in. In fact, about 150,000 roofers are rushed to hospital with serious injuries across the nation each year due to roofing accidents. In addition, the industry has a high turnover rate because of the danger attached to the job as well as it being physically demanding. Roofing injuries can permanently change your life and put you out of commission, unable to fend for yourself or family for a long time to come.

Roofers have to put up with unsafe structures, heat, chemicals and the danger of a roof collapsing under their feet. In addition, even if they work under a main company that offers workers’ compensation, the amount they receive to cover treatment costs and lost wages is almost always paltry, and can’t cover their needs for the duration of their injuries. As a result, it makes sense to look into a construction roof injury lawsuit which will help compensate you to the fullest extent of the law.

Here are some of the most common causes of roofing injuries:

• Faulty or poorly manufactured ladders
• Overwork leading to exhaustion
• Unsecured power lines
• Lack of proper safety gear
• Inadequate training
• Working in severe weather conditions
• Scaffolding giving way
• Falling debris
