What Injured Workers
Need to Know

Construction Injuries

KNEE INJURIES

Knee injuries frequently affect construction workers who lift heavy objects or perform stressful repetitive motions.

Many different kinds of on-the-job tasks performed by construction workers can result in serious knee injuries. Trips, falls, lifting heavy objects, and other stressful repetitive motions performed on construction sites are just a few of the causes of knee injuries to construction workers. Excessive time spent kneeling, crouching, or squatting can also increase stress on the knees. Wearing kneepads and keeping the construction site free of clutter and debris that presents a tripping hazard are two ways that the risk of knee injuries can be minimized. Construction workers can suffer a variety of knee injuries, including:

  • Twisted knee
  • Broken knee cap
  • Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear
  • Posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) tear
  • Medial collateral ligament (MCL) tear
  • Tendonitis
  • Dislocation
  • Fractured knee
  • Meniscal tears
  • Arthritis
  • Chondromalacia

A knee injury can have a significant effect on motor function and prevent a construction worker from working until it is healed. Depending on the severity of the knee injury, extensive physical therapy or surgery may be required. If your employer was negligent in ensuring the safety of your work site, the construction injury attorneys at Block O'Toole & Murphy can ensure that he or she is held liable for your resulting knee injury. Please contact us today to receive a free case evaluation. We will help you understand your rights and fight on your behalf to protect them.
