According to the Occupational Saftey and Health Administration (OSHA) over 4.4 million workers are seriously injured every year in the United States and 5,559 workers lost their lives due to on the job injuries in 2003.

Most State's worker's compensation laws provide that injured workers can not sue their employer for negligence, so long as the employer carries workman's compensation insurance. Typically workman compensation provides for weekly benefits while the worker's doctor has him/her off work. Medical costs are usually covered as are future medical costs. It is a good idea to talk to a lawyer if you are seriously injured on the job. - You may be due a substantial cash settlement due to third party negligence.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sometimes a company other than your employer causes the injury - a subcontractor, an independent contractor, supplier, or property owner. In these cases it is often possible to bring a court case against the "Third Party" (not the employer) to recover money damages under normal legal rules of negligence. These cases are more and more common today as more companies look to "outsourcing" and "independent contractors" to control fixed costs.

 

Remember! Don't wait until it's too late! The law puts time limits on how long you can wait before bringing a case. The time limits and conditions vary from state-to-state and under Federal Law.
