Solar Burn Injury At Work Lawyer
Many agree that solar power is the future for California and that there is a need for reliable and clean electricity. With more demand for electricity, as it is now being used to power vehicles, it is more critical than ever to have a dependable means of producing power. Solar panels on commercial buildings, garages, and even free-standing platforms offer a great way to produce valuable electricity from the sun. But someone, or thousands of someones, needs to be building and maintaining these solar panels and solar farms.
If you thought that getting a job working on solar panels was the perfect way to ensure your future and a good paying job, you were on the right track. However, it is critical to understand that there are safety hazards associated with these careers, including the obvious, like a fall from a roof or injuries from lifting heavy equipment. However, you should also know that there is the potential to suffer severe solar burn injuries at work on a solar installation or existing panel. The panels can get extremely hot when exposed to the sun. In addition, imperfections in a solar panel called hot spots can cause burns as the heat gathers at these damaged areas, which might look like a tiny crack or debris damage on the surface of the panel.

As most people know, solar panels use the power of the sun to create electricity. However, they do not understand that the process can cause the panels to get very hot. Think of touching the window of your car after it has been sitting in the full sun all day. Like the car window, the solar panel holds a great deal of heat, which can cause a contact burn when touched. Sadly, current panels are not able to capture all the services of the sun, so some heat is wasted on the surface of the panel.
But most solar panel workers know that wearing the proper protective gear, like thick gloves, is vital for their safety. However, the issue becomes more critical when a solar panel is damaged. Even a slight crack in the panel or a minor defect that looks smaller than a tiny rock chip on a windshield can allow the electricity and heat to escape from the panel and result in significant burns when touched by an unsuspecting worker. If you suffered a solar burn injury at work and need to get help opening a workers comp claim, please know that DTLA Law Group is ready to provide the information and assistance you need.
