Did You Suffer A Work-Related Injury That’s Common Among Workers?

If your injuries cause you to be unable to earn an income, you have a right to receive medical care and untaxed disability wages.

Leading Causes Of Common Workplace Injuries

Overexertion is the number-one cause of workplace injury. Accidents from lifting even light loads can cause back, neck and shoulder injuries. Some common worker activities that can lead to overexertion include:

  • Pulling and pushing
  • Lifting
  • Crawling, reaching or climbing
  • Bending, kneeling or twisting
  • Holding
  • Throwing

Injuries from these activities are especially common in service, trade, and warehousing jobs. The following issues are the other top causes of work injuries, according to data from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA):

  • Repetitive motions involving fine motor tasks, also called repetitive stress injuries causing temporary or permanent injuries to muscles, nerves, ligaments, and tendons
  • Same level falls or same-surface falls including falls on ramps, level surfaces, ramps, and stairs
  • Slip or trip without falls
  • Falls from heights
  • Strikes by or against objects or equipment caused by forcible contact
  • Impact between an employee and an object or equipment that falls, swings, rolls, and flies
  • Caught in/compressed by equipment such as gears and rollers, causing crushing injuries
  • Occupational motor vehicle crashes

Less common but still tragically debilitating injuries and fatalities include:

  • Electrocutions
  • Violence by a person
  • Animal attacks
  • Exposure to toxic substances
  • Explosions and fire

Wrongful Death In Workplace Accidents

According to OSHA, there were 525 job-related fatalities in California from 2017-2021. If your loved one died from a workplace injury, you may be entitled to compensation through workers’ compensation wrongful death benefits. We can help you hold those responsible accountable.

Get Rightful Compensation For Your Workplace Injury

According to the Liberty Mutual Research Institute for Safety’s 2018 Workplace Safety Index, serious workplace injuries cost businesses more than $58 billion in 2018. That is a nearly 3 percent increase from the previous year. Workers’ compensation insurance companies know an employee being injured through no fault of their own is not uncommon. However, because of these losses, employers and insurance companies often strive to deny claims to reduce their insurance costs and liability. They may deny legitimate claims hoping you’ll not follow through on obtaining the benefits to which you’re legally entitled.

When you’ve been injured on the job, the process to file a compensation claim is complicated . Deadlines for reporting, seeking medical attention, and filing are strict. If you don’t fill out forms properly, your benefits could be permanently denied.

If you or a loved one suffered an on-the-job injury, you have the right to pursue workers’ compensation benefits. With the assistance of an experienced attorney for worker’s comp benefits, you can maximize your chances for getting the compensation you need to recover.
