Work-Related Injuries
No less than three million Americans sustain work-related injuries each year, often resulting in back and neck pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, and hip and shoulder problems.
The most common of these injuries stem from:
- Repetitive motion injuries causing strain on muscles and tendons
- Overexertion injuries sustained while pulling, pushing, lifting, or carrying heavy items
- Slips on wet surfaces and falls from elevated areas
- Falling objects
- Becoming entangled in machinery
- Accidentally walking into objects (tables, chairs, walls, glass doors)
- Being involved in an accident while driving for business purposes
