What Are the Different Types of Workplace Injury Claims

February 27, 2023

If you’ve been injured at the workplace due to someone else’s negligence, or if you contracted an illness from working in a hazardous environment, you may be eligible for compensation. Filing for such a claim can provide relief for medical bills and lost wages caused by the injury or illness.

There are different types of workplace injury claims that vary depending on the circumstances of the accident and where it happened. Generally speaking, most employers have liability insurance policies which cover most work-related injuries and illnesses, however, these policies may not apply to situations that involve intentional misconduct by the employer or its employees.

The first type of claim is due to negligence on behalf of your employer. This includes any safety regulations or protocols that were not followed which subsequently led to an injury or illness, as well as any equipment malfunction due to lack of maintenance. In order to file this kind of claim, you must prove that your employer was negligent in their duties which caused your injury or sickness.

The second type of claim is based on intentional wrongdoing by your employer. If your employer intentionally exposed you to a hazardous work environment without informing you beforehand, then they would be liable for any damages incurred as a result. You must also prove intent in order to file a successful claim in these cases.

The third type of workplace injury claim involves physical and emotional abuse that has occurred at work. These types of cases usually involve harassment by co-workers and/or superiors, but can also include discriminatory practices such as unequal pay and unfair promotion decisions based on gender or race etc. Any incidents like this should be documented with detailed notes (including dates) for legal action later on down line if needed later down line.

Lastly, there are accidents that happen off-site while employees are undertaking certain tasks related to their jobs (e.g., traveling between two offices). Such incidents are covered under workers’ compensation insurance policies so make sure to speak with an injury attorney about how best proceed with claiming these benefits accordingly.
