No matter what line of work you are in, there is always some risk of injury. Whether you are a factory worker or an office employee, no line of work comes without some degree of risk. Desk workers can suffer repetitive stress injuries such as carpal tunnel syndrome. Retail workers can slip and fall after a customer spills something or a co-worker forgets to place a wet floor sign. Factory and construction workers are at an even higher risk of injuries due to the heavy machinery they work around on a daily basis. This is why workers’ compensation exists. It is meant to be a source of compensation for any employee who is injured in the line of work. However, there can be some challenges in obtaining workers’ comp benefits. It can be very helpful to work with a lawyer throughout the claims process.
