On the Job Injury by GCWC

Many different careers have risks both high and low that end with people suffering an on the job injury. While an accident can happen during any job, there are others that are much more dangerous jobs such as those that involve transportation, machinery, construction, and even sanitation. As you can tell, it’s easier to see how a workplace with very dangerous work conditions can be held accountable if a worker has an accident while on the clock. Every employer has to have the necessary accommodations so that their employees feel safe and can do their jobs efficiently without worrying about enduring an on the job injury.

Gold Country Workers’ Comp Center is a law firm dedicated to helping their clients with disabilities and injuries, getting them the benefits they rightfully deserve. An accomplished and experienced attorney can give you adequate advice on how to move forward with your claim. In fact, it doesn’t cost you any more money up front the earlier you get an Attorney involved, but not getting one early enough could cost you in your case later on.

To understand how likely a worker can get injured, here is a list of some dangerous careers that could result in an on the job injury:

·        Landscapers, lawn service workers, and groundskeepers

·        Construction workers and extraction workers

·        Structural iron and steel workers

·        Ranchers and other agricultural workers

·        Truck drivers

·        Refuse and recyclable materials collectors

·        Roofers

·        Aircraft pilots and flight engineers

·        Fishers

·        Logging workers

Whichever the case, if you receive a specific injury that requires medical care, or even if you receive an injury that developed over time, and it happened while you were on the clock at your place of work, you are most likely entitled to workers’ compensation. It might be a bit hard to tell at first, in which case you could call an Attorney for a consultation to see what your options are.

The process of applying for Workers’ Compensation can seem complicated, and choosing an evaluating physician is a crucial step in the process. Our ability to be familiar with the process is essential in obtaining a fair or even favorable evaluation, since employers and their insurance companies will be working hard to save their own money at your expense.

The assistance of an attorney is crucial especially in ensuring things get filed on a timely basis. Gold Country has helped many people who have an on the job injury, so don’t hesitate to call us for a consultation at 530-362-7188.
