Si un contratista general, un fabricante de equipo, el propietario del inmueble u otro subcontratista comparten la culpa, esa opci\u00f3n sigue disponible sin importar tu estatus migratorio. La ley de negligencia en Carolina del Norte no exige que la persona lesionada tenga una tarjeta de residencia.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"on-a-multi-contractor-job-site\"><\/span>En una obra con varios contratistas<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>En las obras de construcci\u00f3n de Raleigh y en todo el condado de Wake, suele haber un contratista general que coordina a varios subcontratistas. Si tus lesiones fueron causadas por fallas de seguridad del contratista general, como un andamio sin protecci\u00f3n o la falta de un arn\u00e9s de seguridad, es posible que puedas presentar una demanda.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"when-your-employer-has-no-insurance\"><\/span>Cuando tu empleador no tiene seguro<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Algunos empleadores omiten por completo la cobertura de indemnizaci\u00f3n laboral, lo cual es ilegal. Si esa es tu situaci\u00f3n, la ley de Carolina del Norte te permite demandar directamente a ese empleador ante un tribunal civil. Las indemnizaciones que se pueden obtener en ese caso, incluyendo el da\u00f1o moral, suelen ser mayores que las prestaciones de la indemnizaci\u00f3n laboral por s\u00ed solas.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"tactics-employers-use-to-deny-undocumented-workers-benefits\"><\/span>T\u00e1cticas que utilizan los empleadores para negarles prestaciones a los trabajadores indocumentados<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Algunos empleadores se valen del miedo para hacer que una reclamaci\u00f3n desaparezca antes de que se presente. Ten cuidado con los empleadores o las aseguradoras:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Decirte que presentar una demanda har\u00e1 que \u201cte deporten\u201d o que te denuncien ante el ICE<\/li>\n<li>Pagar en negro precisamente para que no haya ning\u00fan registro salarial que demuestre tus ingresos<\/li>\n<li>Llamarte \u201ccontratista independiente\u201d para eludir por completo la cobertura<\/li>\n<li>Amenazar con despedir a los compa\u00f1eros de trabajo que te ayudan a reportar la lesi\u00f3n<\/li>\n<li>Ofrecer dinero en efectivo de inmediato en lugar de una reclamaci\u00f3n real, para que el rastro documental termine ah\u00ed<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Ninguna de estas t\u00e1cticas cambia lo que dice la ley. Simplemente apuestan a que no lo sabr\u00e1s. Si adem\u00e1s los salarios impagos est\u00e1n relacionados con la lesi\u00f3n, el <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dol.gov\/agencies\/whd\" target=\"_blank\">Divisi\u00f3n de Salarios y Horas del Departamento de Trabajo de EE.

Las protecciones federales para los denunciantes que aplica <a href=\"https:\/\/www.osha.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\">OSHA<\/a> adem\u00e1s, amparan a cualquier trabajador que denuncie una situaci\u00f3n de inseguridad, independientemente de su estatus migratorio. Las represalias motivadas espec\u00edficamente por el origen nacional o el estatus migratorio tambi\u00e9n pueden exponer al empleador a una acci\u00f3n legal independiente <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eeoc.gov\/national-origin-discrimination\" target=\"_blank\">EEOC<\/a> queja.<\/p>\n<p>Entendemos que la protecci\u00f3n legal no elimina el miedo.
