What Should I Do If I Am Injured At Work?
There are four steps you should take if you are injured while on the job:
- Report the injury immediately: This includes reporting the injury in writing to the employer as soon as possible, and no later than 30 days after the injury. In Tennessee, you also complete a form called the “First Report of Work Injury.”
- Obtain medical treatment: Your employer must give you a choice of three physicians to choose from to get immediate medical care. You may choose any of the three physicians on the list for your treatment.
- Apply for temporary disability payments: If you cannot work for seven days or more due to a doctor’s orders, you may be eligible for payments of temporary disability. This comes before applying for workers’ compensation.
- Contact the Stapleton Law Office: Workers’ compensation law in Tennessee is very complex and needs an experienced attorney who understands workers’ compensation laws. It is important to contact an attorney right away to get the representation you need.
