Catastrophic workplace injuries

Statistics from International Labour Organization (ILO shows that over 337 million workplace accidents occur each year across the globe. These accidents along with contraction of occupational diseases result in over 2.3 million deaths each year.

A person spends his/her major part life at his/her workplace. It is not rare for workers to become victims of workplace injuries. Most types of catastrophic workplace injuries are covered under the Workers’ Compensation, however in cases where the negligence of someone results in an injury, then in such cases a claim of personal injury has to be filed. In most cases the payouts received under the workers’ compensation are minimal and are not sufficient enough to cover all the expenses of the victim.

Our experienced team of lawyers at Khashan Law firm provide legal advice and courtroom representation to the workers and their families, who have been victims of catastrophic workplace injuries or deaths. We handle catastrophic workplace injury claims involving:

• Accidents on the construction site – collapsing of the walls, ceilings and scaffolding
• Accidents on the factory premises – continuous stress injuries, injuries due to use or malfunction of heavy equipment, accidents on the conveyor belt
• Industrial accidents – Injuries due to chemical burns or fires or explosions while at work
• Transportation accidents – Injuries to commercial drivers, couriers, fleet drivers while transporting goods
• Accidents due to environmental hazards – Injuries due to hazards on industrial sites, construction projects and office buildings

It is very important for the injured employee to understand all their options before they accept any compensation from the employer. Once an employee accepts the workers compensation from the company, they will have to forfeit their right to pursue the claim in court. Victims of catastrophic workplace injuries have a fixed timeframe within which they need to file a claim, therefore it is advisable to contact a catastrophic workplace injuries lawyer at the earliest.

Over the years, we at Khashan law have witnessed how it is difficult for victims of catastrophic workplace injuries to recover their damages for the injuries they sustained in the accident.
