Is the general contractor liable for my injuries that occurred while I was working for a subcontractor?

Yes. In the construction industry, the general contractor is responsible for all of the subcontractor employees, as well as his own employees. Therefore, even if the subcontractor, such as a roofer or electrical company, has no workers’ compensation insurance, the general contractor is liable.
