WHAT TO DO AFTER A WORK INJURY

Notify your supervisor immediately, or make sure a co-worker does the same;
- Make sure to remember the name of the person you talk to;
- If you do not report your injury promptly, your employer’s insurance company may deny your claim;
Go to the emergency room, or your doctor, as soon as possible;
- Many times, injured employees ignore their injuries until it’s too late to get proper treatment;
Listen to your doctor;
- Ignoring your doctor’s orders may be sufficient cause to terminate your benefits;
Consult an attorney;
- The insurance company will always look out for the bottom line, NOT your well-being;
