Worker's Compensation

Workplace trauma is a common problem that plagues many workplaces, especially jobs that involve frequent heavy lifting or the use of high-tech equipment. If you've recently developed a workplace injury involving the musculoskeletal system, you have various options to choose from. At Allegheny Physical Medicine, P.C. in Bethel Park, PA, we will treat your worker comp injury with the care that it deserves.

What Counts as a Worker Comp Injury?

Worker's compensation is the insurance that's paid when an employee experiences medical costs or wage losses from an injury on the job. A variety of workplace injuries can occur, the most common being slips, trips, and falls. Muscle strains and wear-and-tear injuries are also frequent, particularly if you repeat certain motions with the body.

Depending on the environment of the workplace, a worker may be more prone to getting hit by falling objects or inhaling toxic fumes; this happens at construction sites or heavily-equipped factories. If you are a professional driver or a trucker, then auto crashes and collisions can also result in serious injury.
