No matter what type of job you perform, you are at risk for electrocution! Although electrical workers are at the highest risk for electrocution deaths, workers in construction and non-construction fields are also at risk and should learn how to avoid electrical shock and electrocution. If you use electricity and/or electrical devises at your place of employment, you may suffer serious and even fatal injuries caused by electrical currents. Only a small amount of electricity is necessary to cause electric shock, electrical burns, and electrocution.

The following are some work-related sources of electric shock and electrocution:

• Changing light bulbs
• Coming into contact with live wires
• Electrical appliances
• Improperly installed electrical wires and conductors
• Striking overhead power lines
• Striking underground power lines

The Occupation Safety and Health Administration provides employers with electricity-related guidelines for the work place to assist in the prevention of electrocutions and other electrical injuries. If your employer has provided you with an unsafe work environment resulting in an electrocution, you should contact a New York electrocution attorney to learn about your rights. We may be able to recover monetary compensation for your injuries, pain and suffering, medical expenses, and other electrocution-related costs.

If you or a loved one has been electrocuted on the job in New York, call Wingate, Russotti & Shapiro today for a free consultation with an experienced New York electrocution lawyer.
