PODCAST #245 Georgia Workers' Compensation Lawyer - Critical point to describe work injuries.
Manage episode 378306119 series 2875491
We've done some other videos on notice if you're injured on the job in Georgia. Most important things is to provide notice to your employer that you were hurt and that you need medical care. More importantly, when you provide them notice that you are injured, it is head to toe. You need to tell them everything that feels funny. Why do I say that? We got a lot of claims where someone got hurt seriously. Hurt their back. But they also had some sort of tingling funny feeling in their finger. And the reality is the back just hurt worse. Turns out their finger was broken. Hairline fracture versus a serious back injury. However, if you don't mention it, worker's compensation will fight you to the nail to have that care approved. If it happened because of the same event and you fail to report it. So, reporting and giving notice is absolutely critical. Everything that feels funny or strange based upon how you hurt yourself. Stay safe!
