It happens everywhere, employers knowingly or unknowingly subject their employees to working conditions that can be unsafe. Unfortunately, workers can suffer in more ways than one; physically, emotionally, and financially. From life-altering injuries that demand ongoing medical treatment to lost wages, workplace accidents can hurt employees physically, financially, and emotionally.
