Getting hurt at work can be a tricky situation…
whether it is severe or minute, make sure you document it. An injury may not seam like a big deal at first, but once you get yourself to the doctor, you could realize just how injured or costly it could be.
- A Stumble off an unsafe ladder – maybe you think you just sprained your ankle. After a few days the pain isn’t going away, you go to the doctor & realize that you fractures or tore muscles. Now you will have doctor and possible physical therapy bills.
- Severe accidents – you never know what could be a problem later.
For your own benefit, document, document, document! This way your employer will believe you a week down the road when you say you were hurt on the job. It will make everything a little easier. =)
