How to Report an Accident at a Construction Site in NYC? - Keetick Sanchez

From K L Sanchez Law Office, P.C. – How to Report an Accident at a Construction Site in NYC? explores the critical steps construction workers, contractors, and bystanders must know when an accident occurs on a job site in New York City. The podcast walks listeners through how the industry-wide crackdown by the New York City Department of Buildings and federal bodies like OSHA came about, why reporting matters, and how every detail from date/time to site permits plays a role in protecting rights and safety.

In the second segment, we dive into what a formal construction accident report actually is — what it includes, how it functions not only as a regulatory document but also as legal proof in workplace injury and workers’ compensation claims. We unpack the key evidence types that matter most, such as photographs, witness statements, surveillance footage and medical records — and why prompt action makes a difference.

Next we turn to practical how-to’s: how to report an accident (whether injury or fatality) in Queens or the broader NYC area, who to call (911, the DOB’s hotline, the 311 system), how to escalate unsafe conditions, and how the law protects whistle-blowers and workers from retaliation. We highlight the rights of workers and the public when they see a hazard, and clarify the what, when and how of escalation to OSHA or local authorities.

Finally, we bring it all together with insight from attorney Keetick L. Sanchez and her team at K L Sanchez Law Office, P.C., serving Queens and throughout the City. We outline how the firm supports injured workers, what listeners should ask in a free consultation, and how understanding the process can help individuals take control after a construction-site accident. The episode ends with actionable advice listeners can apply the next time they witness or are involved in an on-site incident.
