Workplace Injury

Dealing with a workplace injury from a job-related accident can result in down-time and missing out on the everyday activities you normally enjoy. To prevent and minimize such accidents, OSHA provides detailed guidelines for employers regarding the safety of a work environment. Unfortunately, workplace injury is still common source of missed work and medical bills – hiring a workplace injury lawyer is critical to recuperating.

 

Shockingly, slip, trip and fall accidents cause 15% of all accidental deaths and come in second only to car accidents. There are standards for walking and working surfaces which apply to nearly all permanent places of employment.
Below are a few common hazards and causes of workplace injury:

 

– Ice

– Wetness

– Grease

– Polished floors

– Loose flooring/carpeting

– Uneven walking surfaces

– Clutter

– Electrical cords

– Open drawers or cabinets

– Damaged ladder steps
