What to Do After a Workplace Accident
If you are involved in an accident at work and are injured as a result, it's important that you follow the proper steps in order to increase the likelihood that you will receive workers' compensation benefits.
After a workplace accident, you should make sure to do the following:
- Notify your employer of the accident as soon as possible
- Obtain medical treatment for your injuries right away
- Fill out a written accident report provided by your employer
Once you have completed these steps, your employer should file an Employer's First Report of Injury or Fatality with his or her insurance provider and the Massachusetts Department of Industrial Accidents. State law requires the insurance company to either approve or deny your workers' compensation claim within 14 days. If approved, the insurance company will start sending benefits, including disability payments. If your claim is denied, or your employer refuses to file a claim with his or her insurance company, it's wise to enlist the help of a skilled Medford workers' comp lawyer as soon as possible.
