Workplace accidents are a common phenomenon in recent years. Millions of people get injured while doing their job, but some jobs attract some of such incidents than others depending on the type of work. Even the so-called “low-risk” jobs can cause some long term illness in the worker. According to research, people working as Logging Workers, Fishers and fishing related workers, Aircraft pilots and engineers, Roofers, and refuse and recycling collectors are most likely to meet such accidents. In Iowa and Illinois, worker’s compensation programs are available which provide benefits to the workers who suffered any injury or developed any illness due to their work. And if an individual’s claim is denied in these states, they are entitled to a hearing. A person who needs help in this regard can contact Capron and Avgerinos for assistance.
