Rights of an Injured Worker


Do you need to know the rights of an injured workers? In a perfect world, workers would always be safe on the job. But whether it’s the nature of the work, a freak accident, or a negligent coworker, work-related injuries happen. They are an unfortunate, but sometimes an unavoidable part of the working world.

Rights of an Injured Worker | Damages

Work-related injuries can be devastating for any worker, including those living or working in Massachusetts. If the injury is severe, it can lead to time lost at work, compounding the injury by adding financial difficulty to an already physically painful situation.

Rights of an Injured Worker | Compensation for Damages

Luckily, there are laws and administrative procedures in place to ensure injured Massachusetts workers have some form of monetary recovery for their injuries. Depending on the facts surrounding the injury, as well as the applicable laws, this compensation can pay for medical bills, and lost wages.

Rights of an Injured Worker | Help from an Attorney

The legal process for obtaining this type of recovery is usually quite complex and typically requires the advice of an experienced Massachusetts workers compensation attorney. The lawyer can explain the legal rights an injured worker may have and the steps they must take to take full advantage of those rights. In some situations, an injured worker will have two possible avenues of recovery: workers’ compensation and a personal injury lawsuit.
