Protect your rights after suffering injuries in a factory accident

On Behalf of | Apr 13, 2020 | Workers' Compensation |

Working in a manufacturing facility or factory provides employees with a reliable source of income. In the New Hampshire economic environment, a steady income is extremely important. Most manufacturing workers would go far to protect their jobs and secure financial well-being for their families. Unfortunately, this sometimes means not reporting a work-related injury.

Filing for workers’ compensation should never endanger your job

Even knowing that workers’ compensation is a possibility in the wake of a manufacturing accident does not always convince employees to file a claim. Living with an untreated work-related injury is never wise. Not only will you have to face daily discomfort in most cases, but you also risk a worsening of symptoms or perhaps even an eventual disability if you fail to seek treatment.
