What To Do After An Injury
Important Steps
01 Seek Medical Attention
If you have an immediate or ongoing injury, or even if your injuries are minor, it is best for you to visit a doctor to be examined. Some injuries may not appear for hours or days after the incident. Seeing a medical provider right away is important for your safety and to document your injury.
02 Report the Incident/Injury
A workplace injury must be reported within 30 days of the incident. If you have an incident that results in injury, be sure your employers are notified immediately. This should be your supervisor, a manager or someone in human resources.
03 Document the Incident
It is crucial to gather evidence and document the incident and your injuries thoroughly. Take photographs of the accident scene, your injuries, and any visible hazards that may have contributed to the incident. Keep copies of medical reports, doctor's notes, incident reports, and any other relevant documentation related to your injury. These records will be valuable when filing a workers' compensation claim or pursuing legal action, if necessary.
04 Contact a Workers' Compensation Attorney
A workers’ compensation lawyer may be able to help you investigate, gather evidence, and file a workers' compensation claim so that you may get the compensation and settlement benefits you deserve, in a timely manner. Choosing an experienced and reliable attorney is the key to maximizing your benefits.
