Queens Crane Collapse Injures New York Construction Workers

Some jobs in New York are inherently more dangerous than others. While there are certainly workplace injuries that can be suffered from office jobs — mostly repetitive motion injuries that worsen over time — oftentimes, the most serious and dramatic injuries happen at construction or industrial worksites.

This appears to be the case in an incident recently that took place southeast of Buffalo. A worker at an asphalt plant was taken to the hospital after an explosion. Officials say that some workers were preparing to make blacktop when, for reasons that have yet to be explained, the blast happened around 6 a.m.

In addition to the immediate recovery period, workers who have been hurt might have long-lasting injuries that could affect their quality of life for years, if not the rest of their lives. These injuries may not be immediately apparent, but that does not mean they are not serious. An experienced Workplace Injury Attorney can offer advice to someone who has been hurt on the job.
