Workers' compensation is in place to assist paying for any lost wages, rehabilitation, medical expenses, and the pain and suffering that comes along with the injury.

Between continuous motion, heavy lifting, and dangerous conditions, accidents in the workplace may happen at any time. If you or a loved one has sustained an injury while on the clock, you may be able to file a workers' comp claim.

Workers' compensation claims are typically filed for injuries such as:
  • Back injuries
  • Slip & fall injuries
