The great majority of employment entail performing essentially the same tasks every day. Unfortunately, this occasionally leads to repetitive motion injuries or repetitive stress illnesses among workers.
For instance, if you work at a computer or on an assembly line, you may experience wrist tendonitis, bursitis, or carpal tunnel syndrome. You run the risk of developing repetitive motion injuries to your hands, shoulders, back, hips, knees, and/or feet if your profession entails lifting.
The good news is that most businesses are required to have workers compensation insurance, which can assist you in paying for medical expenses and replacing lost wages due to repetitive motion injuries. The bad news is that it might be incredibly challenging to actually receive your workers’ compensation benefits. Read on for more information and then contact PLBH at (800) 435-7542 to request a free legal consultation.
To prove repetitive motion injuries, it is wise to have legal representation from a work injury attorney
In principle, receiving workers compensation should be easy: all you have to do is fill out a form. However, the truth is far more nuanced. Insurance providers for workers’ compensation do not simply approve claims and begin paying benefits. They’ll instead battle tooth and claw to find any justification to reject your claim or cut back on your benefits.
Because repetitive motion injuries can be difficult to document, this is especially likely to occur in those circumstances. Without any outward signs of the injury, employees frequently feel severe pain, numbness, edema, redness, stiffness, tingling, loss of muscle strength, and irreversible soft tissue damage. Insurance companies may assert that the injury was not truly severe enough to warrant reimbursement or that it was not at all related to work-related activities.
PLBH fortunately has decades of experience with situations involving repetitive motion injuries. We are aware of every strategy the insurance company will employ to attack you, and we also know how to effectively counter these strategies.
