If you are injured on the job, reporting your injury as soon as possible is essential.

OSHA has limited resources and staffing in each state, making it important to report workplace injuries promptly. Without notification, OSHA may never have the opportunity to investigate the incident and document potential safety violations.

OSHA reports and other documentation can be valuable when building a workplace injury case.
If you've been injured at work, don't delay reporting your injury. Bailey, Javins & Carter, P.C. is here to help you understand your rights and your legal options.

A workplace injury may involve more than a Workers’ Compensation claim.

In some circumstances, a worker may also have a personal injury claim against a third party whose negligence or other negligent conduct contributed to their injury. A third-party claim is separate from Workers’ Compensation and may allow an injured worker to pursue other damages, depending on the facts of the case.

Contact Bailey, Javins & Carter, L.C. to learn more about a potential claim.
