Filing a Workers' Comp Claim at an Airport

Top

Have you been injured while working at an airport? Airports are some of the busiest places in the US, transporting millions of people every year. Whether it's a back injury from heavy lifting, or a broken arm from a slip and fall, you might be entitled to workers' compensation if you were hurt on the job.

Were You Injured at Work?

If you were hurt while working at an airport, you're not alone. The US Department of Labor maintains a list of workers' compensation claims at airports. Here are just some of the previously approved claims:

  • Vehicles striking employees
  • Employees falling from movable stairs onto tarmac
  • An employee suffering cardiac arrest while handling luggage

Next Steps After an Accident

If you have been injured while working, you should consider speaking with a workers' compensation attorney. A workers' comp attorney can help explain your rights, gather evidence for your claim, and even defend you in court if need be.

Workers' compensation attorneys work on a contingency-fee basis, which means they're not paid unless you win your claim.
