Commercial Car Accidents are a common type of injury that is handled through the Delaware Workers' Compensation system. Unlike other car accident cases, the driver was usually in the course and scope of employment when the accident occurred. If that is true, then the accident could be handled through a Workers' Compensation claim against the employer.

Commercial Motor Vehicle Accidents can occur to many different types of employees driving many different types of vehicles in Delaware: Drivers of Emergency Vehicles, Buses, Semi-Truck Trailers, Delivery Vehicles, Shuttles and Taxis can all be victims of traffic accidents and have Workers' Compensation claims.

Construction workers face very dangerous working conditions. Serious work-related injuries frequently occur at construction sites. Hazards can include moving or falling machinery, heavy objects, falls from high elevations, defective or unsafe equipment, electric currents, asbestos and chemicals.

The law requires that certain measures are taken on construction sites to protect workers from inherent hazards. Generally speaking, contractors are required to:

​

• Take precautions to create a reasonably safe work site

• Warn workers of inherent site hazards Hire employees who are cautious and skilled

• Supervise the work site to ensure compliance with safety specifications

​

Sometimes, however, safety precautions prove to be inadequate. This can result in devastating injuries to construction workers and other bystanders. When a construction site accident occurs, many parties can be liable: owners, architects, fellow on-site workers and manufacturers of equipment.
