Workplace injuries are more common than many people realize. National Safety Month reminds us of the importance of preventing workplace injuries and protecting employee safety.
Common Workplace Injuries
Slips, trips, and falls, overexertion injuries, repetitive stress injuries, and equipment-related injuries are among the most common workplace accidents.
Preventing Injuries
Proper training, use of safety equipment, regular maintenance of equipment and facilities, and reporting hazards all reduce workplace injuries.
Your Rights
If injured at work, you're entitled to workers' compensation benefits regardless of who was at fault. You may also have a claim against third parties.
