Crush accidents in coastal Monmouth County often involve real-world conditions that can complicate liability, such as:
- Seasonal staffing and fast-paced job schedules (more reliance on training-on-the-fly)
- Busy loading/offloading operations tied to retail and hospitality
- Property maintenance and equipment handling in areas open to the public or shared with workers
- Construction and renovation work where guarding, lockout procedures, or maintenance logs may be incomplete
These factors matter because they influence what records exist, who controlled the worksite, and how quickly evidence can be lost.
