Potential Liable Parties in Workplace Wrongful Deaths
In cases of wrongful death in the workplace, liability may rest with:
Employer
Employers are responsible for maintaining a safe work environment. If their negligence leads to a fatal accident, they can be held liable. This might include inadequate safety protocols, poor training, or faulty equipment. Families of the deceased can claim damages for medical expenses, funeral costs, and loss of income.
Third-Party
In some instances, a third party's recklessness might cause the wrongful death. Here, the family can still claim worker’s compensation death benefits. These are designed to support families financially, helping to cover ongoing living expenses and financial losses following their loss.
