Defective Industrial Machine Accidents

Call a New Jersey Product Liability Attorney

Product liability laws relating to industrial machines are, by and large, the same as the laws that apply to regular consumer products. Thus, if you have been injured by a dangerous product, you can fight for fair compensation. Common examples of industrial machines include the following:

Agriculture equipment
Assembly line
Industrial robots
Oil refinery equipment
Packing and labeling equipment
Paper mill equipment
Sawmill
Smelter
Water wheel

Due to the inherent dangers of being employed at an industrial workplace, defects in these types of machinery is especially problematic—and can result in life-threatening or even fatal injuries to workers who are utilizing them.

Third Party Lawsuits for Workplace Accidents

For those who are injured on the job, the only route for compensation is not necessarily workers’ compensation laws.

If it can be proven that the injury was caused by a defective industrial machine, they may be able to pursue a third-party lawsuit against the designer, manufacturer, or distributor of the product. In such cases, something that can be especially helpful is an understanding of the safety codes and standards implemented by OSHA as it could help to prove that the industrial machine in question did not meet set regulations.
