Hurt On The Job

Lawyer Serving Arkansas

Often times, hurt-on-the-job injuries are because of the fault of others who do not work for your employer. At Duncan Firm, we are able to investigate and look for alternatives to worker's compensation, such as a third party who is at fault. The majority of employers are required to have workers compensation systems in place to protect workers injured on the job. However, workers’ compensation doesn’t always come through when you need it. If you’ve been injured at work, consider hiring an attorney team to inform you of your rights and help you get the money you need for recovery.

Hurt-on-job injuries can happen in any industry, from corporate businesses to blue-collar workplaces. The construction industry sees a comparatively high number of workplace injuries resulting from the use of heavy machinery and dangerous equipment, hazardous substances and materials, and unusual and elevated work location.

Workplace injuries may include:

  • Occupational disease such as lung cancer from asbestos exposure
  • Occupational injuries like carpal tunnel syndrome from repetitive actions, or back problems due to lifting
  • Pre-existing conditions aggravated by work activities
  • Immediate injuries sustained from falls, cuts, falling items, etc.
  • Injuries sustained while on company time, but not necessarily on company property
  • Mental or physical conditions brought on by work-related stress
  • Injuries caused through the fault of another not working for your employer (also known as third party liability)

If a loved one suffered fatal injuries while at work, the surviving family members are entitled to wrongful death benefits.
