Seasonal Workers Are More Likely to Be Injured at Work
Statistically, seasonal workers are more likely to be injured at work because of the fact that they may not receive the training they need prior to starting their job. Most are hired during busier times to keep things moving smoothly. This commonly involves moving freight and stocking shelves. If you are injured at work, time is of the essence so don’t wait to file.
Filing a Claim
If you are injured, seek medical treatment immediately. Talk to your employer and explain what happened. Follow your doctor’s orders and make sure to remain in contact with your employer. You may be required to visit a second doctor that is chosen by the insurance company. You will also need to comply with the guidelines for filing a worker’s compensation claim.
