The Reality of Florida Workers’ Compensation Benefits for Amputation Injuries

Workers in many types of industry can incur different types of injuries almost every day. Although some work injuries in Florida are minor, others are life changing. Some of the most critical types of life altering injuries are those that result in amputations.

Whether a worker amputates a toe, finger, leg or arm, the results are physical and emotional pain and suffering, and the injury dramatically changes the victim's life forever.

Some industries don't have as many amputation risks as other industries, such as construction and manufacturing.Construction workers face many on-the-job risks that could result in one of their limbs being amputated. These risks include:

Falls from heights
Malfunctioning equipment
Improper use of tools
Lack of safety guards and equipment

The Impact of a Work Amputation Injury in South Florida
Following a limb amputation, the general contractor or company you work for may do everything in their power to limit your financial recovery. Even if you have been a great employee and faithful to the company for many years, it should come as no surprise that the company needs to look out for their best interests, not yours.

Although the life altering impact of a work amputation injury means medical expenses, a permanent disability, reduced earning capacity, lost income, pain and suffering, and other lifelong medical bills, your employer's insurance company is going to try to settle your workers' compensation claim in Florida for as little as possible.
