Walk It Through: Hurt on the Job

A back injury lifting a pallet, a report to the boss, a claim, and a job application elsewhere.

A stocker hurts his back lifting a pallet at work.

Two things a person in this spot might do. Picking one shows what the law says about it.

A sudden injury at work to an employee. An occupational disease, a death claim, an employer without insurance, and the amount of benefits are not worked through here.

A practice walkthrough, not a prediction of how any real one will go. Legal information, not legal advice.
