Injuries at the workplace occur more often than not. From minor injuries, to career ending injuries, the implications for an employee can be far reaching. When you work in an environment where bodily harm from occupational hazards is a daily occurrence, the need to know a thing or two about lodging successful workplace injury claims becomes more imperative than for a person with an office job.
Be Extra Careful At Work
Employers are more reluctant to pay for workplace injuries than you think. So, ensure that you adhere to health and safety protocols that people in your line of work are supposed to follow. Wear a helmet if you’re expected to, put on a face mask if it’s required. This is important as most employers try to avoid liability by claiming that injury resulted from personal negligence, in which case, your claim will be unsuccessful.
