Filing a Workers’ Compensation Claim After a Chemical Exposure Injury

I was called recently by a man that suffered lung injuries and a bad burn from being exposed to toxic chemical exposure at work. He asked me, “What options do I have to get recovery for my damages?” If you’re reading this, you may have similar questions.

Number one, the client is entitled to lost wages and medical bills and permanent impairment ratings from his employer for his work injuries under Georgia workers’ comp. Number two, if there’s another company responsible for the chemical exposure – a maintenance company, a product manufacturer, or a sub-contractor – that was negligent as a result of this exposure, then a case for permanent injuries, pain and suffering, and unlimited damages can be brought in Superior Court in Georgia for that worker’s damages.

If you have any questions about work chemical toxic exposures, in the state of Georgia, give us a call. We’d be happy to help.
