Workplace Safety
There are specific agencies that have the responsibility to administrate and enforce the laws enacted to protect the safety and health of workers in the United States. OSHA is the main statue protecting the health and safety of workers. These laws are designed to eliminate personal injuries and illnesses in the workplace.
There is a need for these agencies because businesses often ignore these laws. When this occurs, employees working conditions are compromised. US employees rely on our dependable workers compensation system to resolve disputes about vocational injuries and disease and to provide for related worker needs. However, the workplace is one of the most common places that people are injured.
Our legal team has a strong history of helping injured workers get the medical attention and financial compensation that they need. Contact the Law Office of James M. Hoffmann if your work related injury case is not being handled properly.
