If you are injured on the job, it’s important to take the following steps:

Report the Injury: Notify your supervisor or employer about the injury as soon as possible. Follow your employer’s specific reporting procedures and ensure that they are aware of the incident. Reporting the injury promptly helps establish a record and may be necessary to qualify for workers’ compensation benefits.
Seek Medical Attention: If your injury requires immediate medical attention, seek medical care promptly. Depending on the severity of the injury, you may need to visit a designated healthcare provider specified by your employer or go to the nearest emergency room. Document all medical treatment received, including diagnoses, prescriptions, and recommendations.
Document the Incident: Write down the details of the accident or incident that caused your injury. Include information such as the date, time, location, and a description of how the injury occurred. If there were any witnesses, gather their names and contact information. Taking photos of the scene, if possible, can also be helpful.

Having a lawyer helping you with your claim can take that stress off of your shoulders and allow you to recover in peace. A workers’ compensation attorney will be able to catch any tricks they’re using to save money so that you get full compensation.
