Steel and Iron Workers and Alabama Workers Compensation Claims

Steel and Iron Workers and Alabama Workers Compensation Claims

Steel and Iron Workers have strenuous jobs and work in conditions where they are exposed to constant peril.  This is why steel workers and iron workers jobs consistently rate high in listings of the most dangerous jobs worldwide.

Whatever their job, be it a Boilermaker, Welder, Machinists, Millwright, Pipefitter, etc., the heavy work and long hours are conducive to job injuries.  The International Labour Organization’s Code of Practice on safety and Health in the Iron and Steel Industry lists the top causes of job injuries as: Falls, working with heavy equipment, exposure to continual loud noise, working with dangerous chemicals and airborne toxins and long-term exposure to vibration from the equipment used.  Iron and Steel workers also face danger from falling objects and working around electricity.

The fact the number of serious injuries is not higher is a tribute to the professionalism of those who have learned this trade, but even the most experienced worker can easily suffer a job injury in this environment.

Over the last 30 years, the Alabama Job Injury Lawyers at Powell and Denny have been fortunate to have represented numerous Iron and Steel workers who have suffered job injuries.  If you work in the Iron or Steel industry, you have suffered a work injury and you have questions about your right to Alabama Workers’ Compensation benefits, don’t hesitate to contact and speak with one of the experienced attorneys at Powell and Denny today to schedule a free consultation either in person or a virtual appointment from wherever you live via Zoom.
