How Safe Is Your Workplace?

The tech industry might not seem like a particularly dangerous environment to work in but, in reality, any workplace contains a number of hazards. While the IT sector may not carry the same risks as construction or manufacturing industries, employers are still required to implement stringent healthy and safety procedures to protect their workers.

If you’ve been injured at work or while performing your duties, there’s a good chance that you’ll be entitled to compensation. However, making a successful claim isn’t always easy, which is why you’ll need support from the best law firm and talented personal injury attorneys.

Are You Entitled to Compensation?

Workplace injuries are remarkably common, even though strict health and safety regulations are in force throughout the U.S. Due to this, hundreds of thousands of employees are eligible to claim compensation for a workplace injury each year.  

When you make a personal injury claim, you usually need to prove that someone or something else was at least partly responsible for the incident that caused you to get hurt. If you’re claiming workers’ compensation, however, it’s not necessary to show who was at fault. In theory, this makes it easier to obtain compensation but, in practice, the workers’ compensation claim process isn’t always easy to navigate.

To ensure you get the financial recompense you deserve following a workplace injury, be sure to obtain legal advice in advance. While many people assume claiming workers’ comp will be straightforward, they’re often surprised by the procedural and regulatory requirements that are in place. By working with personal injury lawyers, however, you can ensure that your claim isn’t rejected unnecessarily.

However, if you have been injured in your workplace it’s recommended to stay calm and make decisions without panicking. Even if you have insurance, they may delay the process so getting a skilled personal injury attorney will be the right solution as they have experience in this field and know exactly how to negotiate and how to prepare all the documents ready to fight for your rights and get the desired compensation.

Taking Action Against a Negligent Employer

If your employer has been negligent and this has caused or contributed to your injuries, you could be able to make a personal injury claim against them too. In such cases, you do need to prove a ‘fault element’, which essentially means that you’ll need to prove that your employer was negligent and that their negligence led to your injuries.

Although making this type of claim can be more challenging than claiming workers’ compensation, there is more to be gained. When you make a personal injury claim against your employer, you can obtain compensation for all damages, including pain and suffering. This means that the amount of compensation you receive can be substantially higher if you choose to make a personal injury claim against your employer.

Should You Claim for Compensation?

If you’ve been hurt at work, claiming compensation can ensure that you don’t suffer financially. If you need to take time off work to recover, for example, workers’ compensation can cover your lost wages. In addition to this, taking legal action after a workplace injury can encourage employers to be more vigilant about health and safety, which could prevent other people from being hurt.

To find out what your rights are and whether you’re eligible to make a workers’ comp and personal injury claim, contact a personal injury law firm and get the advice you need now.
