Attention Injured Corporate Office Workers – Your Compensation Rights, Revealed

Corporate office work is often seen as the epitome when it comes to employment in America, perhaps due to the fact that corporate giants rake in revenues of tens of billions of dollars, which then translates to astronomical salaries for those who are fortunate enough to work for these companies. The positions range from CFO to program managers to compliance officers or even accountants, and the head offices of many a corporate office feature cubicles that can number in the high hundreds, with these individuals spread out over a number of floors. Corporate office work may seem mundane, but the dangers of injury is what we must focus on, as many suffer injuries that go unreported or unresolved.

It is important to note that all employers are required under law to have workers’ compensation insurance for their workers, and this is a program which allows for the reimbursement or compensation of any injured persons as far as things as medical treatment as well as part of their lost wages due to not being able to work for the duration of their injury or illness.

While this may seem like a noble cause, the compensation provided by this program is often insufficient to cover an injured corporate office worker’s medical, upkeep, rehabilitation and lost wages needs. It is for this reason that it is important to reach out to experienced corporate worker injury lawyers, so your rights can be protected as well as receive timely assistance when it comes to filing a third-party claim for comprehensive compensation, something we’d love to assist you with – read on to find out more.

Common Causes of Injuries at Corporate Offices

Let’s take a look at some of the most common types of injuries in corporate offices:

Slips, Trips and Falls

This is perhaps one of the most common type of injuries in corporate offices due to a number of factors such as the presence of recently cleaned or polished floors, cluttered walkways due to individuals leaving their items all over walking paths, as well as poorly lit areas such as the staircases as well as restrooms

Ergonomic Injuries

Many corporate office workers often have to contend with prolonged computer use without sufficient breaks, as well as an awkward work setup due to the cramped nature of each cubicle. Coupled with prolonged sitting, numerous workers often find themselves with repetitive strain injuries (RSI) as well as back and neck pain.

Stress and Harassment-Related Injuries

The high stress nature of corporate environments can exacerbate certain underlying conditions such as migraines or IBS and make such a work environment hostile and not conducive for efficiency and productivity. In addition, it is not uncommon for supervisors or managers to harass workers and push them to do more than is mandated due to the sheer power they have over dozens of workers, creating instances of depression, anxiety and PTSD.

It is important to note that work-related injuries are more often than not perpetrated by negligent parties who breached a certain duty of care towards their corporate workers leading to the workers’ subsequent injuries, whether physical or psychological. In such instances, injured workers would be well within their rights should they opt to file a lawsuit in order to recover money damages for things like the cost of medical care, lost wages, rehabilitation and at-home care, pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life and so much more.
