There are many types of work-related injuries that can occur from any number
of accidents. With so many different industries, there are a wide range
of accidents that can occur and all job-related accidents deserve representation.
Some of the most common workplace injuries include:
Falls
Whether it was a slip and fall accident on a wet surface or a fall from
a height, these are some of the most common work-related injuries in the
United States. Ladders, roofs, spills, trips, and falls can cause serious
damage to the victim and may take years to recover from.
Neck and Back Injuries
Falling from heights or slips and falls on the job can cause serious back
or neck injuries, but so can standing or sitting for prolonged periods
of time or improper lifting techniques. Back and neck injuries can be
debilitating and result in costly medical expenses.
Car Accidents
Motor vehicle injuries, especially those caused by delivery personnel,
are common as well. Traffic, speeding, reckless drivers and drunk drivers
can all cause you serious injuries. These accidents may also pertain to
forklift operators or other small-vehicle drivers.
Crush Accidents
Being caught underneath, between or underneath an object can cause major
complications. Crush accidents are medical emergencies and may require
amputation or surgery and can sometimes cause death.

or broken finger, you can still obtain medical benefits and workers'
