Common Workplace Accidents

Every workplace has the potential for danger, especially when safety protocols are not made the top priority. Whether you work in a quiet office with a few other people or work in roadside construction, you could unexpectedly be in a workplace accident that prevents you from returning to work for a while.

Some of the most common types of workplace accidents include:

Falls from heights

Exposures to hazardous materials

Work vehicle accidents

Struck-by accidents

Fires

Falls from heights

The construction industry is one of the most dangerous in the country due to the inherent jobsite hazards, such as workspaces with verticality. Falling from heights or off a scaffolding is one of the leading causes of job-related fatalities each year.

Exposures to hazardous materials

Hazardous chemicals can be dangerous in any workplace if they are not used and stored properly. For example, a retail worker who uses harsh chemicals to clean the store each day could fall ill from repeated exposure.

Work vehicle accidents

Police officers, firefighters, EMTs, food courier drivers, and other professionals who drive each day while on the job are at risk of getting into a car accident caused by negligent motorists.

Struck-by accidents

When a worker is hit by a moving object – such as a work vehicle or a falling object – it is called a struck-by accident.

Fires

Workplace fires are extremely dangerous in any setting, but they are notorious in the oil industry, such as when a fire breaks out on an oil rig or oil field.

What Benefits Can You Get with Workers’ Comp?

Workers’ compensation is a no-fault insurance system, which means you should qualify for its benefits even if you admit to being the sole cause of your workplace accident and injuries. It is designed this way to make sure that you do not have to get caught in a legal battle with your employer, who is sure to have far more resources than you. As such, you should be able to get workers’ comp benefits that help you get back on your feet again soon without distressing your finances.

Three of the most important benefits available through workers’ comp include:
