According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, in 2004 there were over 4.2 million job-related injuries and illnesses and over 5,700 on-the-job fatalities. Workers have a right to worker’s compensation when an injury occurs on the job. An employer typically provides workers’ compensation to help an injured worker with his medical bills and lost wages.

Because there were two injuries after a workplace accident, filing the necessary compensation claims is important.
