Workplace accidents include construction accidents, factory accidents, electrical accidents and other such cases involving:

• Eye injuries
• Rib injuries
• Pelvic injuries
• Herniated discs
• Back injuries
• Sciatic pain and nerve injuries
• Head injuries
• Broken limbs (arms and legs)
• Loss of limbs or amputation
• Asphyxiation
• Burn injuries
• Crush injuries
• Wrongful death

There can also be a significant psychological impact upon individuals who have suffered serious injuries on the worksite, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulations are in place to protect workers' rights and safety. When these regulations are ignored, employees are susceptible to serious workplace injuries, both physical and mental.

Depending upon the unique circumstances of the case, there may exist grounds for a workers' compensation, employer intentional tort, third party liability, product liability or premises liability claim. Employer intentional tort occurs when an employer knows of a dangerous condition in the workplace, and is substantially certain that if an employee is exposed to that dangerous condition he or she will be harmed. Moreover, the employer must also instruct the employee to work in such a way that he or she is exposed to the dangerous condition.
