NYC Construction Workers in Dangerous Situations

In the world of construction, accidents happen. They have always been an unfortunate but inevitable part of the profession, especially in large cities like New York. Falls are very common in these work environments, with union and nonunion workers. However, recently developers have been eliminating costs on construction sites by cutting corners with safety, especially in nonunion work zones. This trend can be observed when examining the fatal accident at the Times Square construction site in April, 2017.

Recently in New York City, in a tragic occurrence, a worker fell from an I-beam at 1604 Broadway, near 49th Street and died soon thereafter. Reports of the incident refer to it as avoidable and the NYC buildings commissioner was even quoted as stating “We think it was completely preventable,” The NYC department of buildings shut down the worksite following the accident pending an investigation into the contractor and the conditions of the site.

At the Law Office of Richard Kenny, we have a special passion and expertise for construction injuries because our founding partner, Richard Kenny put himself through law school by working construction full time and taking night classes for 4 years.
