Workers' Comp Accidents
There are many different accidents for which you can receive benefits through the workers' compensation insurance plan, including construction site accidents, delivery accidents, accidents caused by falling objects and heavy machinery, and even electrocutions and slip and fall accidents.
Worker’s Comp Injuries
A worker’s compensation accident can result in numerous injuries that can aggravate a pre-existing illness, cause an occupational disease produced by the workplace, lead to off work site injuries, or serve as the foundation for injuries such as brain trauma, carpal tunnel and spinal cord injuries.
Workers' Comp Denials
Workers' compensation claims are denied for a variety of reasons, but mostly because a person failed to hire an attorney and file the claim properly. Remember, employers and insurance companies will look for any reason to deny the claim and not have to pay you.
Rights of Injured Workers
Those who are injured at their place of employment have rights to file a workers' compensation claim, despite what their employer may say. If your employer has threatened to retaliate against you, such as terminate your employment, you should talk to a lawyer immediately; your employer may have violated your rights.
Benefits of Workers' Compensation
There are many benefits of workers' compensation, besides the obvious one of providing injured workers with the financial resources they need to pay medical expenses. Workers' compensation may also help support you and make up for lost wages and non-economic damages. See what worker’s comp will cover in both the short and long-term.
