📦 Think workplace injuries are usually caused by major accidents?

📦 Think workplace injuries are usually caused by major accidents?

Think again.

In North Carolina, more than 22,000 workplace injuries in a single year were caused by overexertion and bodily reactions.

That means injuries from things like:

✔ Lifting ✔ Pushing ✔ Pulling ✔ Carrying ✔ Repetitive movements ✔ Reaching overhead

Many workers don't realize a serious injury can happen while performing routine job duties they've done hundreds of times before.

Sometimes, it's not a dramatic accident that puts someone out of work.

It's one lift. One twist. One movement.

🚨 Workers' Compensation Myth vs. Fact 🚨

🚨 Workers' Compensation Myth vs. Fact 🚨

MYTH: If the accident was your fault, you can't receive workers' compensation benefits.

FACT: In most North Carolina workers' compensation claims, fault doesn't determine whether you're eligible for benefits.

That means you may still qualify for workers' compensation benefits if:

✔ You slipped and fell ✔ You lifted something incorrectly ✔ You made a mistake while performing your job duties ✔ No one else caused the accident

The key question is often whether the injury arose out of and in the course of your employment.

Many injured workers never file a claim because they incorrectly assume they were "to blame."

Don't let a myth keep you from understanding your rights.
