Work Accidents Resource Center Launched by Accidents.com

Accidents.com is pleased to announce the launch of its new Work Accidents Resource Center. The Work Accidents Resource Center features practical, relevant legal information for victims of work related accidents, including construction accidents, refinery & plant explosion accidents, and electrocution accidents.

A work accident is any accident that occurs while the victim is engaged in the course of duties imposed upon an employee. Work accidents and injuries are usually covered by workers’ compensation laws, but this does not mean that you cannot recover damages if a negligent third party caused the injury. Work related accidents can result in neck, back, and knee injuries, eye injuries, repetitive trauma injuries, hearing problems, loss of limbs, occupational diseases, pulmonary conditions, and work-induced heart attack or stroke.

The Work Accidents Resource Center features an overview of work related accidents, including information on determining liability, a guide to workers compensation in relation to work accidents, illnesses, and injuries, tips for the prevention of work related accidents, information on the Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA), and more. An overview of the common types of work related injuries and illnesses is also featured.

Specific practice area pages dedicated to construction accidents, refinery & plant explosion accidents, and electrocution accidents are also featured on the site. Information about accident causes, determining fault and liability, statute of limitations, and more is available for individuals who have been injured on the job. Each of these pages includes verdicts, settlements, class action watches, and official links for site visitors who want to learn more about workplace accident law. Each of the work accident practice areas also provides breaking workplace accident news from around the country. 

If you have been involved in any type of workplace accident and are seeking information about your legal rights, visit the Work Accidents Resource Center today. You can search for accident resources by practice area, state, and county to quickly find the legal information that is most helpful and relevant to you. Fill out the simple online form for a free legal consultation and receive a response from a qualified work accident attorney within 24 hours.
