When any worker met
with an accident during the work on site then he/she can apply for
compensation from their employer. Simply the worker should follow
some steps like:
- After being injured tell your employer about your injury.
- While going for treatment inform your doctors how you met with an accident.
- Also inform the insurance company about your injury.
- Keep all the medical records for future use.
In most of the cases,
employers decline to pay compensation to the worker for the injury.
Then what should an employee do? There is nothing to worry as the
injured person can hire a lawyer to claim the compensation against
the employer. If the company or the insurance company is neglecting
the worker's injury then the lawyer will handle them legally. The
lawyer will file a case against them so that they have to pay the
compensation in the settlement.
The employer will pay
all the hospital and medical bills and will also pay the compensation
amount to the employee when he/she was off duty due to accident. The
lawyer will also ask them to let the employee should rejoin the work
till he/she is not getting another job. If the worker got died due
to injury then the family members of the worker will claim the
compensation.
For the better results
the injured worker should keep all the medical and hospital bills and
also ask all the new doctors who are doing your treatment of your
injury that how you have met with an accident and how you got
injured. Also notice that the doctor should note down that you are
asking to him/her. These things are very helpful while going for
claiming the compensation.
