Philadelphia, PA personal injury attorney Leon Aussprung M.D., ESQ. talks about what happens if you get injured in the workplace. When an individual is injured in the workplace, workers’ compensation typically applies as a no-fault system, meaning there is no need to prove any wrongdoing. However, additional sources of compensation may be available through third-party litigation. For example, although the injury occurred at work, the equipment involved may have been maintained by a third-party vendor, or another company might be responsible for maintenance, cleaning, or inspection of the area. It is crucial to involve an attorney, even in a workers’ compensation claim, to investigate these additional sources of liability and help maximize recovery.
