Short answer
Identifying liability requires assessing the cause, contractor, organisation of work and ownership relationships. A nearby construction project alone does not fully establish causation.
Practical example
A wall cracks after work in a neighbouring apartment. A specialist should assess the connection and necessary repair.
What to do
Document the condition immediately, request inspection and retain work dates. Obtain an expert report, repair estimate and participant details.
Points to consider
An employer may also be liable for harm caused by a worker performing duties. Establish the workers’ status.
