I have been injured on the job, what do I do?

When you're injured on the job, the most important thing for you to do is to report the claim.  Now, most companies have a lot of peer pressure on their workers.  Like they'll have some type of a policy that says if there's no lost time, people get bonuses and that sort of thing.  And so there's a lot of peer pressure on you to not report that claim.  But you need to report the claim.   Certain time deadlines start whenever you report the claim.  But also, certain time deadlines can affect you so that your claim can be barred if you don't report that claim timely.  And so it's very important, whenever you get injured on the job, the first thing you do is report the claim.  The second thing you need to do is contact a lawyer immediately to get advice on things.
