Houston, Texas OSHA / Safety Violations Lawyers

Texas Safety Violations Attorney Representing Injured Victims in Houston, League City and Clear Lake

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is a federal agency responsible for oversight of safety in the workplace. Through the authority of OSHA, federal regulations govern safety requirements in construction zones, manufacturing environments, oil well drilling, research facilities, schools, government buildings, food production and preparation, and office space. As a result, employers can be held financially liable for injuries or fatalities that happen due to OSHA violations. At the Krist Law Firm, our attorneys work with safety consultants, accident investigators, and experts in OSHA safety standards. We interview supervisors, workers, and conduct our own investigation into what happened and why.

Don't assume your employer will admit they violated OSHA standards. Protect yourself and your job - contact OSHA violations attorneys at the Krist Law Firm today to schedule a free consultation to discuss your case.

Identifying OSHA / Safety Violations in the Workplace

Most industrial accidents and injuries in the workplace occur because existing hazards are ignored by employers. While workers can alert OSHA to real and suspected safety violations at their jobsite, oftentimes employees are simply unaware violations have - or are - taking place. As a result, if an accident happens, injured workers may not even be aware it was due to OSHA violations. Of course, most employers are aware they can be held criminally responsible and financially liable for gross safety violations. Consequently, they may use disinformation or intimidation to encourage injured employees to keep quiet.
