Types of Workers Compensation Injuries

Slip and Fall

Slip and fall accidents are the most common type of work injuries. Surprisingly, slip and fall injuries occur most often at ground level. This could be due to a wet, slippery floor, an object in your path, loose carpet or flooring that’s in disrepair.

Neck and Back Injuries

If you work in construction, manufacturing, transportation or healthcare, the chances are much higher for neck and back injuries. But desk and office jobs can also cause neck and back injuries. We’ve helped all types of injured workers – from construction workers and manufacturing technicians to accountants and IT professionals.

Repetitive Stress Injuries

Repetitive stress injuries, such as carpal tunnel syndrome, are one of the largest sources of workers compensation claims nationwide. Repetitive stress injuries can manifest as carpal tunnel, bursitis and tendonitis. Assembly line workers can be especially vulnerable to developing repetitive stress injuries, but so are office workers who primarily use a computer or calculator to do their work.

Toxic Exposure

Workers in construction and manufacturing are exposed every day to harmful and toxic chemicals all the time. While perhaps not as often, office workers may be exposed to toxic elements without knowing it. Exposure to toxic chemicals, such as asbestos, can cause serious health conditions like mesothelioma. Workers can also develop other serious conditions, such as asthma, tumors, and nerve or organ damage, due to toxic exposure.
