Burn Injuries at Work
Burn injuries are far too common in the workplace, with fires and explosions causing 5,000 such injuries each year, according to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration. When an employee suffers a burn injury at work, they may be able to file a workers' compensation claim.
Workers' compensation is a type of insurance that provides employees who were injured on the job with wage replacement and medical benefits. In exchange for these benefits, the employee forfeits their right to sue their employer for negligence.
There are many cases where insurance companies will try to limit payouts or deny benefits entirely. Workers who have suffered a burn injury on the job should speak with an attorney immediately to discuss their legal rights and options. Workers' compensation benefits do not offer payment for pain and suffering, loss of life’s enjoyment, loss of consortium, or disfigurement; however, these damages may be available for burn injury victims who pursue third party claims.
In these cases, the worker will file a suit against a third party, such as a subcontractor or product manufacturer, to seek damages that may supplement their workers' compensation benefits. Our burn injury lawyers handle both workers' compensation and third party claims stemming from accidents including refinery fires, chemical plant explosions, construction site accidents, and chemical exposure.
