Workers’ Compensation Insurance for Construction Workers: Essential Protection

The construction industry is fraught with risks, making workers’ compensation insurance essential. This coverage provides financial support for employees who suffer work-related injuries or illnesses, covering medical expenses, lost wages, and more, while employees typically forgo the right to sue their employer.

Employers are responsible for securing this insurance, which affects operational costs and may influence pricing. Coverage includes medical expenses, disability benefits, death benefits, and vocational rehabilitation. However, it does not cover intentional injuries, commuting accidents, non-work-related issues, or pain and suffering.

In construction, workers’ compensation is crucial for managing risk, boosting employee morale, and ensuring productivity and compliance. Costs vary based on industry classification, payroll, safety record, claims history, and state regulations.

At CDF Artisan Insurance Solutions, we offer tailored workers’ compensation coverage to meet the unique needs of your construction business. Contact us today at (909) 275-7557 for a free consultation and strengthen your workplace protection.

One Injury, Two Cases? | Can I Have A Workers Comp AND a Third Party Case? - [Call 312-500-4500]

In this video, injury lawyer Scott DeSalvo discusses a common but complex issue that arises in workers comp cases: what happens if you get injured while working but it's someone else's fault? Scott provides examples of situations where this might occur, such as a truck driver getting hit by another driver or a construction worker falling due to a safety violation. The good news is that if you're in this situation, you can potentially have both a workers comp case and a third-party lawsuit.

Scott explains the benefits of having both cases and the differences in damages you can claim. While workers comp damages are capped, a third-party case allows for unlimited damages, including pain and suffering, disability, and future treatment costs. If you find yourself in this situation, it's important to consult with a lawyer to navigate the complexities. Watch the video to learn more and get the information you need to protect your rights.

When an employee is injured at work due to someone else's fault, they may have both a workers' compensation case and a third-party lawsuit. Examples include a truck driver injured in a collision caused by another driver or a construction worker hurt due to a general contractor's safety violation. Workers' compensation provides benefits like paid time off, medical care, and settlements without proving employer negligence, but damages are capped.

A third-party lawsuit allows for unlimited damages determined by a judge or jury, including claims for pain and suffering, disability, and future medical expenses. Combining workers' compensation with a third-party lawsuit can be beneficial but complicated, so consulting a lawyer is recommended.

"NO LUMP PAYMENTS WILL BE ALLOWED," Toronto Globe. January 9, 1913. Page 9. ---- Workmen's Compensation Will be Carefully Arranged ---- RAILWAYS BY THEMSELVES ---- Farm Laborers Not to be Included as an Industrial Hazard - Sir William Explains Points in the Proposed Legislation. ---- Sir William Ralph Meredith at the workmen's compensation inquiry yesterday morning made it clear in two important details which way his recommendations would go. In the first place there will be no scheme that would give the right of lump sum payments. Even the administering board could not authorize it. The other is that railways will not be grouped with other industries, but that any scheme they may adopt will be in line with the general principles of the proposed act. Farm laborers for the time being will not be included as an industrial hazard.

The non-appearance of Mr. F. W. Hinsdale, chief auditor of the Industrial Commission of the State of Washington, altered Sir William's plans somewhat, and instead of taking evidence the time was given over to a general discussion of the proposed scheme.

Mr. Wegenast, for the Canadian Manufacturers' Association, told the Commissioner that the Ontario system would affect 400,000 people, and Sir William figured that the probable cost would be $250.000. Mr. Wegenast contended that the grant in Washington State was inadequate, that the Commission should be allowed to group the classes, and that the payroll should not be the only standard of indemnity.

Farmers Not Included In reply to a question by Sir William, it was conceded that farmers would not come under the act in the meantime, as this might impede the passing of the act through the Legislature. The Commissioner said that he was mindful of the positions occupied by persons employed on the farm, but it was not the same as an employee of a railway or a factory.

"What would the manufacturers think if legislation was recommended under which the employer should be obliged personally to pay the whole of the compensation?" Sir William asked Mr. Wegenast.

"Any reasonable compensation for negligence would not be objected to. but returns from this source should not go directly to the employee, but to the general fund," replied Mr. Wegenast.

"I suppose in the last analysis the proposed legislation will be a tax on the community. Of course the railways, for example, can look after themselves, but what of the producers of wheat and of silver?" continued Sir Willlam.

Mr. Hellmuth - "But in the case of railways the rates can always be checked and established by the Dominion Railway Board."

The Act in Danger. Sir William - Yes, but my experience has always been that such rates are invariably far above those which ordinary business conditions would alone compel. I want to say that if the manufacturers or the railways can form schemes of their own they will break down the act. The idea that I have is that the railways should be excluded from any group for the present:

"From the standpoint of expediency I agree with your Lordship, but on principle I disagree," interrupted Mr. Wegenast.

"Principle is nothing in this case, and expediency is everything. To accomplish anything definite we must be prepared to compromise."

The labor representatives did not agree with this announcement, and Mr. Hellmuth objected to the C.P. R. being placed in a group alone and paying into the fund to judge the effect in the prevention of accidents and the consequent adjustment of the assessments.

Early in the discussion Sir William declared: "This legislation is social; there is no disguising the fact. The very basis of it is to prevent the injured workman becoming a charge on the community. If this were not so one of the primary objects of the scheme would be defeated. If we allow compensation in a lump sum it might be squandered, and if that were permitted it would defeat our primary object."

He also intimated that there could be no legislation that would imply a guarantee upon the Province.

Mr. F. N. Kennin, Secretary of the Commission, stated last night that he had word that Mr. F. W. Hinsdale would be present at the hearing this morning, and his evidence would probably cover the entire day. The sitting will commence at 11 o'clock this morning in the Private Bills Committee room at the Parliament buildings.

Always remember that people had to fight to gain basic resources like workers' comp and social security that we now take for granted.

When this woman, being escorted out of City Hall Park in New York City by a policeman, came to call on Mayor Walker on February 7, 1930, she headed a large body of unemployed men and women carrying banners. None of them succeeded in parading into City Hall, as police dispersed the band very quickly. Unemployment insurance and work were the chief demands made by the demonstrators.
