What do I do after a workplace accident in Florida?

If you’ve been injured on the job, there are several important steps you should immediately take to ensure that your rights are protected and health is being taken care of properly. Our attorneys will help you every step of the way through this process.

  • File An Injury Report – Sometimes these reports are required to be filed within a short window of time (like 24-48 hours). Time is of the essence so do not delay in scheduling your free consultation with our firm so that we can ensure your accident reports are filed with the proper channels within the statute of limitations.
  • File a police report – This is especially important in auto accidents, larceny, and robberies, but may be required no matter what the incident for insurance purposes.
  • Document Incident with 3rd Parties – If the incident took place on a third-party commercial property such as a job site, vendor, or other place of business owned by someone other than your employer, they will most likely have a process for reporting incidents that differs from your own employer. It’s important to take this step as soon as possible so that the third party can preserve any video evidence.
  • Seek Medical Attention – One of the first things you should do is seek out appropriate medical care, including calling an ambulance if necessary. This is crucial to both your health which is top priority and in your ability to seek out compensation. The longer you delay in obtaining medical care for your accident, the more likely health insurance and workers comp adjusters will dispute your claims.
  • Meticulously Document Everything – Take note of every detail religiously throughout your process of filing reports and seeking medical care. This includes the dates/times of your calls, appointments, and visits, the name and extension numbers of representatives you speak to, case numbers, report numbers, and so on. The more you document, then less anyone can question your recollection of incidents.

Examples of Common Workplace Accidents

There are many types of workplace injuries, each with their own legal aspects that need to be accounted for, including whether you’re an employee, freelancer, independent contractor, subcontractor, day laborer, etc. Below is a non exhaustive list of common workplace injuries. Our attorneys can advise you of your rights.

  • Auto accidents in commercial vehicles
  • Slip & Fall Accidents on construction sites, offices, and other commercial sites
  • Eye & Head Injuries
  • Dangerous or Toxic Chemical Exposure
  • Broken Bones & Limb Loss
  • Spinal Injury & Paralysis
  • Electric Shocks & Explosions
  • Cuts, Tears, and Lacerations
  • Forklift & Crane Accidents
  • Failure to comply with Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulations

What if my employer does not carry workers compensation insurance?

Workers compensation insurance in Florida provides extensive benefits for employees who have been injured on the job, but not all employers carry the proper insurance policies. If you have suffered an on-the-job injury and your employer does not have insurance, you may have the right to sue them directly for your pain, suffering, medical bills, and loss of income.
