Establishing Liability
For fall from height claims filed in Williamson, liability often turns on evidence gathered from specific Taylor locations, including US-79 through Taylor.
Fall from height cases in the workplace are among the most common OSHA violations, and citations for lack of fall protection provide strong evidence of employer negligence. The employer, the general contractor, the scaffolding company, and the ladder manufacturer may all bear responsibility depending on what caused the fall. Expert testimony about OSHA fall protection requirements and whether the available safety equipment was properly used and maintained is central to establishing liability.
Relevant Texas Law
Residents of Taylor pursue these claims under the same Texas statutes that govern all state personal injury actions.
OSHA regulations under 29 CFR 1926 Subpart M require fall protection for workers at heights of six feet or more in construction, and these standards apply in Texas. Texas Labor Code provisions regarding nonsubscriber employers are frequently implicated in fall from height cases in the construction industry. When a defective ladder or scaffolding component causes the fall, Texas product liability law under Civil Practice and Remedies Code Chapter 82 allows claims against the equipment manufacturer.
