Employer Responsibility in Oil Field Accidents

Texas Oilfield Injury Lawyer

It is an employer’s responsibility to protect the health and safety of their workers while on the job according to standards set forth by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration under the Department of Labor.

When OSHA standards aren’t met, employees are more at risk to be injured on the job or, even worse, killed. Some common health and safety conditions that could lead to worker injury or death are vehicle accidents, struck-by/caught-in/caught-between accidents, explosions and fires, falls, confined spaces, chemical exposures, and more.

Why does this happen? If the rate of production or cost efficiency becomes the highest priority for leadership, some of the first things to be sacrificed are proper precautions and worker safety in order to meet production demands. When an employer fails to safeguard their employees and someone gets hurt or killed, they are liable.
