Delivery Workers

If you work in the package delivery industry or the moving industry or in any other delivery business, you know how easy it is to be injured. You pick up a one-pound package and the next package you pick up is 50 pounds. As you’re loading or unloading the truck, the emphasis is often on speed – and that can mean injury. If you have been injured in the delivery business, be sure to know your rights and to apply for workers’ compensation. Talk to a Philadelphia back injury attorney at the Fenner & Boles workers’ compensation law firm.

At the Fenner & Boles law firm, we have talked to many delivery workers about the injuries they have sustained on the job. A conveyor can malfunction causing an arm to be caught. Getting in and out of a truck in all kinds of weather can lead to falls because of ice or uneven pavement.

A worker may be injured in a traffic accident while driving a delivery truck. A slippery substance on a loading dock can cause a slip and fall injury.

Whatever the cause of the injury, if it happened as a part of your work, a workers’ compensation claim should take care of your medical treatment and your out-of-work time. If your employer says the injury was your fault or that it didn’t happen at work, find out what your rights are.
