Yesterday I Spoke About Construction Accidents At Georgia's State Board of Workers' Compensation Annual Education Seminar in Atlanta

By Jack E. Clay

On August 25, 2008, I was an invited speaker at the State Board of Workers' Compensation's Annual Educational Seminar. The seminar was held at the Renaissance Waverly Hotel which is located in the Cumberland Mall area, bordering Cobb County and Fulton County The seminar was well attended as the pictures indicate. Information about the seminar can be found by clicking here

The topic of my discussion was statutory employment in the contractor setting. As I have written about before, if you work for a subcontractor and are injured, you can file a workers' compensation claim against the subcontractor, intermediate contractor, and general contractor. Moreover, if a policy of insurance has been purchased under which you are an insured employee, you are likely covered if a work accident occurs. The workers' comp. system seems many construction industry injuries as workers who perform physical work under dangerous conditions are often injured.

If you, a friend, or loved on is injured in a construction accident, please do not hesitate to call our law firm for a free consultation.
