Work Related Injuries

A work related injury is any injury that happens to you while on the job. Often times work related injuries occur from construction accidents, as construction is a very physical demanding job. However, work related injuries can also take place while sitting in a cubicle, in an office. Work related injuries also don't have to be "injuries" per se, work related illness is also something for which someone may collect damages.
