Truck drivers are exposed to a variety of work conditions that can cause injuries. From lifting, and repetitive trauma to motor vehicle accidents. The fortunate news is that the trucking industry has some of the highest workers’ compensation rates. However, your company or their insurer may try to get around paying you the full compensation you deserve.
Workers’ compensation is an employer funded insurance designed to help cover any lost wages or medical expenses from a work-related injury. We have extensive experience dealing with insurance companies and employers as we help truck drivers obtain their rightful compensation. When we put our decades of experience to work for you, we will guide you through the benefits process while protecting your best interests from beginning to end.
Get Compensated For Your Recovery
The most common injuries for which truck drivers file workers’ compensation claims include:
- Muscle soreness, strains and sprains
- Back and neck injuries from sitting, lifting and loading
- Slip-and-fall injuries, including sprains and broken bones
- Exposure to dangerous materials from transport
- Catastrophic or fatal injuries from a truck accident
Any of these injuries can put truck drivers into a difficult spot. You may not be able to work and provide for your loved ones.
