Workers Compensation Attorneys In Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

Workers’ compensation coverage, also known as “workers’ comp,” is something that every business with four or more full-time employees is mandated by law to get. Whenever a worker is harmed or becomes ill at work, it offers them financial and economic compensation.


Workplace accidents can make it difficult for the sufferer to go about their daily lives, damage them severely or irreversibly, or affect their capacity to work in general. In the most extreme scenarios, severe workplace accidents could even result in fatalities. Some of the most typical job injuries are:

  • Falls, slides, and trips 
  • Fractures or abrasions 
  • Equipment accidents 
  • Exhaustion 
  • Back problems 
  • Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS)

  • Chemical toxicity

Different Workplace Injury Cases Types

There are numerous ways to become injured at work. Physical harm may occasionally have a proximate cause, such as tripping and falling or injuring your back when carrying items. However, in some cases, disease or injury brought on by hazardous working circumstances may progress gradually over time, such as cancer or mental illnesses. The fundamental categories of workplace accidents are listed beneath.

  • Workplace Mishaps/Accidents

No matter who was at fault for a work-related injury, employees may well be entitled to workers’ compensation benefits. According to the regulations, companies and employers are obligated to pay injured workers’ compensation. After all, workplace accidents can make a worker miss duty or render them permanently disabled. Medical costs and 66.67% of an employee’s wages, whenever they are incapable of working, are often covered by workers’ compensation. Worker’s Compensation is the exclusive right to recovery against an employer. However, an injured worker may have a lawsuit against a third party for misconduct or negligence that caused their injuries

  • Chemical Exposure 

Some workers may very well be confronted with hazardous and toxic substances at work that could be harmful to their health. However, it is the company’s duty to safeguard workers against dangerous substances and establish a secure workplace environment. Accidents and injuries from chemical exposure typically happen in locations that produce, mine, utilize, or keep hazardous materials. Despite this, leakage, paint, cleaning agents, or insufficient ventilation can cause occupational accidents and diseases from chemical exposure in a workspace.

How Do Claims for Workplace Injuries Operate?

Employees’ compensation insurance is often provided by an employer in the circumstances of work-related accidents. Usually, workers’ compensation insurance shields an employer from legal action. Nevertheless, several circumstances can call for suing the company or employer. An employee may typically sue their employer in the following situations: 

  • If an employer purposefully causes a worker’s injury. The harm needs to be the result of intentional behavior, not carelessness. 
  • If a company does not offer workers’ compensation or does not provide adequate insurance coverage; or 
  • If the working accident was caused by a party apart from one’s employer. An attorney for a workplace injury will attempt to demonstrate that the employer established a situation where an injury was likely to happen or that a third party was negligent.


Every company must adhere to a set of standards to guarantee security and equitable treatment for its workers. Workplace injury lawsuits may be the consequence of harm from an incident that took place, exposure to dangerous substances while at work, or even other work-related injuries.
