What Is Considered a Work Injury?
A work injury is an injury that an employee sustained while at their job site or while carrying out their work duties at another location. Work injuries can also take place while the employee is commuting to and from work, or from one job site to another.
Work injuries are especially common in certain types of industries, such as construction, manufacturing, and other industries involving physical labor. According to data from the Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA), 20% of worker deaths in the U.S private sector in 2019 were in the construction industry, making up one in five worker fatalities per year. However, work injury can occur at any type of job, including office positions.
There are many different ways employees can be injured on the job, including the following scenarios:
- Slip and fall accident
- Trip and fall accident
- Being struck by a falling object
- Fall from a scaffold, ladder, etc.
- Electrocution
- Construction accident
- Vehicle accident
- Defective or unsafe machinery or equipment
- Lack of proper safety gear and equipment
- Exposure to toxic chemicals
- Failure to properly train employees
- Failure to implement necessary safety protocols
- Negligent third-party contractors
- Assaults in the workplace
Workplace injuries can vary in severity, from broken bones and soft-tissue injuries to life-altering traumatic brain injuries, spine injuries, terminal illnesses, and other catastrophic injuries. In the worst cases, work injuries can result in death.
