Workers on the high seas are subject to a different set of rules and codes of conduct out there. They are also subject to some extremely risky situations that could lead to personal injury, more than many other fields of business. To help combat the high risk of injury that could occur on the job, maritime law is filled with propositions and acts such as the Jones Act, that helps protect seamen or other maritime laborers. Should a worker become injured while working, they are entitled to compensation and other medical damages from their employer, in many cases.
The same holds true to oil rig workers, who often work extremely long days and under risky circumstances. These oil rigs are often located in remote locations, meaning that the oil company must include room and board for their workers as compensation. Even with the ability to go home and rest right there on the rig, physical exhaustion is often a factor in the high risk level that oil rig workers are subject to. The same principles that drive maritime law may also then be applicable to these workers, due to the similar nature of the jobs.
In either case, be a worker on an oil rig or out at sea on a shipping vessel, if injuries or accidents occur, it’s best to seek out the help of a lawyer who is well versed with maritime law. You may be eligible for significant compensation, which makes sense considering the serious nature of many of these potential injuries. Although the pay level may be high on these oil rigs, benefits are often not enough for the cost of emergency medical care and other expenses that arise during rehabilitation. During this time, an injured oil rig worker may not be able to work at all.
For that reason, some of the biggest settlements using the basis of maritime law involve these disability payments. It’s important to know your rights before going out there as a laborer in these risky positions, to be prepared should an accident happen. While no one wants to think that personal injury could happen to them, the statistical rate for oil rig workers or workers in the maritime industry is quite high. Fortunately, those major principles of maritime law have been put into place over the years to allow for fair compensation for the worker and his or her family in the event of an emergency.
