Frequently Asked Questions

What should a worker do immediately after a job-site injury?
Report the injury to a supervisor or safety manager right away, seek medical attention if needed, document what happened with photos or notes, and notify your employer so they can file a workers' compensation claim. Keep records of all medical visits and expenses related to the incident.
How does workers' compensation generally cover job-site injuries?
Workers' compensation typically covers medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, and a portion of lost wages if a worker is unable to work during recovery. Coverage and benefit amounts vary by state and the specifics of the injury and employment.
When might a third party be liable for a construction-site injury?
If someone other than the employer (such as a contractor, equipment manufacturer, or property owner) caused or contributed to the injury through negligence, a third-party liability claim may be possible in addition to workers' compensation. An attorney can help determine if such a claim applies to your situation.
What role does OSHA play in investigating workplace incidents?
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) investigates serious workplace incidents to determine if safety regulations were violated and may issue citations or require corrective actions. Workers have the right to request an OSHA inspection or report safety concerns.
