Warehouse Worker Injuries Lawyer in Scotch Plains, New Jersey

Free Initial Consultation 

Though many manual labor jobs are fraught with injury risks, warehouse workers, in particular, are exposed to severe risks due to the nature of their job.  In fact, a 2015 report conducted by the Bureau of Labor Statistics found that there were 5 injury cases for every 100 full-time warehouse workers — in other words, 5% of warehouse workers will experience an on-the-job injury every year.  As such, over the course of a long warehouse worker career, you are almost certain to suffer an on-the-job injury.

If you are a warehouse worker who has suffered an injury within the course and scope of your employment, you may be entitled to workers’ compensation benefits from your employer.  If a third-party’s negligence contributed to your injuries in some significant way, you may also be entitled to assert a separate damage claim against the negligent third-party.  To speak with an experienced workers’ compensation and injury attorney, contact Bramnick, Rodriguez, Grabas, Arnold & Mangan, LLC today.

Workers’ Compensation Benefits in New Jersey

You may be entitled to workers’ compensation benefits if you are a warehouse worker injured on the job.  Depending on your employer’s plan, these benefits could be significant and may cover your medical expenses, temporary and permanent benefits, wage loss, cost of retraining (if necessary), and more.  It’s worth keeping in mind, however, that New Jersey law does not allow workers to sue their employers for injuries (outside of very narrow circumstances).  Instead, you may be able to recover damages from a negligent third-party.  For example, if you are injured in a forklift accident caused by a manufacturing defect, you may be able to sue the forklift manufacturer directly for damages.  Pursuing this claim would not necessarily affect your workers’ compensation claim.
