If the injured party's employer is the cause of the injury and unsafe condition, the victim can turn to worker's compensation while recuperating from the injury. Many accidents, though, are complicated and involve several parties who were involved in the negligence on the jobsite. Such cases require separate construction liability suits to compensate the victim and his or her family for injury or death for the negligence. A number of tort theories of liability, including negligence and strict liability, may be pursued by lawyers representing those who bring a lawsuit against all possible defendants responsible for the tragic incident. Considering the circumstances, general contractors, subcontractors, site owners and manufacturers of the tool or machine being used may be held liable for the injuries.
