Construction Workers

In physically demanding jobs such as construction, the most common injuries are lifting accidents that cause injury to the back, neck or shoulder. Working on scaffolds, ladders and rooftops also carries the risk of falls.

Production and Assembly Workers

Assembly workers often engage in repetitive work that can lead to wrist and hand injuries, elbow injuries and cumulative trauma such as tendonitis.

Nursing/Nurse Assistants/Nursing Home/Home Health Aides

Nurses and other health care workers frequently suffer lifting injuries when patients are moved or assisted. Their employers are often slow to address these injuries.

Custodial Workers

Custodial workers perform a wide range of activities in the course of a work day. All of these activities are all capable of producing low back, shoulder and knee injuries.

Mechanics

Mechanics perform some of the heaviest labor during the course of their work and often suffer injuries. Unless there is accommodated light-duty office work available, these injuries will often produce lost time injuries.

Truck Drivers

Truck drivers do more than just drive. Even getting in and out of the cab on a snowy day can pose a risk of injury.

Retail Workers

Retail workers all have their unique set of risks. Accidents and injuries happen and should be promptly reported.

Warehouse Workers

Warehouse workers face risks such as heavy lifting and heavy equipment such as forklifts. Loading and unloading goods present the risk of accidental injury.
