Chatsworth Workplace Safety Lawyers

Workplace Safety

The Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) requires that employers provide a workplace that is safe, secure and free from serious hazard. OSHA regulations are very detailed and stringent; however, some accidents may be unavoidable. Sadly, some workplace injuries are due to poor occupational safety standards, practices or policies. In these cases, injuries are the result of employer negligence. If you or a loved one has been injured on the job site due to an unsafe workplace, you will need the assistance of a reputable, aggressive and experienced law firm to navigate the complex laws, rules and restrictions of OSHA. The Mandell Law Firm is highly skilled in this area of the law. We will investigate your accident, preserve valuable evidence, assist you in evaluating your legal options and file all necessary paperwork. If it is determined that a third party is responsible for your injuries, a Chatsworth personal injury lawsuit may also be possible. Our workplace safety attorneys will ensure that you receive maximum compensation for your losses.

Depending on your injuries, you may be entitled to losses for:

  • Lifetime medical care
  • Temporary, partial or permanent disability
  • Rehabilitation or retraining
  • Wage replacement benefits
  • Loss of earning capacity
  • Enforcement of awards/penalties

If you are injured as a result of an unsafe workplace, your employer will face serious consequences. OSHA requires that your employer follow strict guidelines to ensure your safety at work. Some of these OSHA guidelines are:

  • A safe, secure workplace
  • Safe (well maintained and defect-free) equipment, tools, protective clothing and materials
  • Properly maintained facilities/job site
  • Employers must report any fatalities to OSHA within 8 hours
  • Employers must report any workplace accidents that result in hospitalization of three or more employees to OSHA within 8 hours
