What to do First After You're Hurt on the Job
Any accident that happens on the job qualifies for workers’ comp in Louisiana. All kinds of injuries also qualify.
It doesn’t matter what kind of job you have. It doesn’t matter how the accident happened. It doesn’t matter whether anybody was at fault. It only matters that it happened while you were working.
Take these steps after you’re hurt at work:
- Report your injury to your employer.
- Get a copy of your accident report.
- Confirm that your employer actually started your claim.
- See a doctor of your choosing.
- Talk to a workers’ compensation lawyer.
Workers’ comp has its own separate legal system for deciding who gets benefits. It’s not like a car accident case. That’s why you want a lawyer with experience in workers’ comp.
And you want to get a lawyer as soon as you can.
The moves you make early in the process affect your ability to get the maximum benefits later. It’s like the early moves in a game of chess.
Workers’ comp insurance companies might try to send you to a doctor they want. They might push you to make a statement about your accident before you’re ready. They could have a nurse watch your doctor appointment, looking for reasons to deny coverage. They could reject your claim based on unreliable drug test results.
But you can prevent them from damaging your case for benefits.
When you have a lawyer by your side, it’s easier to stand up to insurance companies, get the financial assistance you need, and make your way to a better life.
