What to Do If you Get Injured on the Job in Kansas or Missouri

As Kansas City Workers Compensation Attorneys we know that your job is dangerous and hope that you are always going an extra step to make sure you are doing your job safely to prevent injuries in case of accidents.

Some injuries, or death, cannot be avoided if there is a large explosion or fire that is unpreventable.  Such as the large blast that blew up the Bartlett Grain facility in Atchison, Kansas killing six people and injuring two others.

One worker, who escaped injury during the incident, said they had been loading corn onto a rail car for about an hour before they saw the fireball coming at them.

On the job injuries can happen no matter what type of job you are working.  On The Job Injuries can be broken down into six categories:

1. Driving based injuries
2. Factory based injuries
3. Heavy machinery/equipment based injury
4. Office based injury
5. Retail based injury
6. Warehouse based injury
