Shaheen & Gordon, P.A. is committed to protecting the rights and well-beings of workers who have suffered injuries on the job. As some of the most devastating accidents that occur in the workplace, explosions have an overwhelming potential to cause serious injuries and death. For workers who have been injured in industrial plant explosions, recovering full and fair compensation is essential to recovering from injuries and putting one’s life back together.
What Are Injured Workers’ Rights?
Under New Hampshire workers’ compensation law, injured workers’ may be eligible to recover benefits and compensation through various options. These may include:
- Weekly Disability Benefits
- Permanent Impairment Award
- Vocational Assistance
- Medical Expenses
It is important to remember that when an injured worker elects to receive workers’ compensation benefits on a no-fault basis, they relinquish their right to sue an employee or co-employee for negligence. In cases in which explosions or workplace accidents were caused by the negligence of an employer or co-employee – especially those involving safety violations – injured workers may pursue compensation by filing a civil lawsuit against any part that have caused or contributed to their injuries. These civil claims – known as third party claims – require victims to show that the at-fault party was negligent.
