Preserving Your Work Place Injury Claim
If you become injured while on the job, at no fault of your own, please do the following:
Get help. Call 911 and wait for emergency services to arrive.
Take pictures of the area. If possible, take photographs of the dangerous condition that led to your injury. The more photographs, the better. If you’re too injured to take pictures, ask a friend, family member, or witness to take some for you.
Gather witness information. Write down the names, addresses, and phone numbers of the other people who were present when the accident occurred.
Seek medical help. Ensure that you visit a doctor and obey their treatment suggestions.
Document everything. In addition to saving all bills, letters of correspondence, and reports surrounding your accident, write down what you remember as soon as possible while the memory is still fresh to ensure important details aren't lost.
