Common Workers’ Compensation Injuries In Minnesota
One of the reasons workers’ compensation claims can be so complex is that the range of injuries that workers throughout southern Minnesota may suffer on the job is limitless. You may work in a turkey processing plant and be injured by equipment on the processing line.
Or you could be a nurse who has spent years helping lift and transfer patients, when suddenly you suffer a debilitating strain or sprain in your back. Maybe you drive a delivery truck and were T-boned on an icy street.
All of these are potential workers’ compensation claims. However, it’s important to understand that workers who are injured on the job must proceed through often complex rules and procedures.
