Commonly Asked Questions About Workers' Compensation Claims
Below Are Some Of The Most Common Types Of Workers’ Compensation Injuries
Overexertion
It is often caused when an employee pulls, pushes lifts or carries some type of object that can result in sprained or torn muscles, ligament and tendons which in some cases leads to serious back injuries. This probably the most common work injury.
Slip And Falls
A slip and fall accident can happen on almost any type of job. Warehouse workers, construction workers, and even office workers. Often people spill food and drink that isn’t cleaned up or the flooring is not maintained and workers slip and fall when doing their daily routine. This can cause sprained or torn ligaments, spinal cord damage, or even more serious head injuries and bone fractures.
Repetitive Motion
Many professions require a worker to perform the same action or movement many times over. This can result in neck, arm, shoulder and wrist injuries and sometimes problems with vision. Carpel Tunel Syndrom is one of the most common work injuries experienced.
Falling Objects
A worker can experience Fractures, neck injuries, back injuries or even brain damage when injured by objects that fall from forklifts, shelves or pallets, ladders, and upper-level work areas.
Falls From Heights
Workers can fall from high equipment, roofs, multi-level inventory areas, ladders, scaffolding, and falls down stairs, which can result in life-altering injuries or even deaths.
Vehicular Accidents
When workers are driving company vehicles such as trucks, cars, vans tractors, forklifts, and heavy machinery, crashes can occur with a deadly outcome for the workers.
