Calabasas Firefighter Injuries
Protecting the Legal Rights of Those Who Protect Their Community in Bakersfield, San Bernardino, Stockton, & Modesto
Every day, firefighters put their lives on the line to protect society. They don't back down from danger, from burning buildings to traffic accidents and other emergencies. Despite laws that guarantee their workers' compensation coverage when they get injured on the job, employers or insurance providers can still try to deny or reduce their benefits. Thankfully, expert workers' compensation attorneys like Gaines & Gaines have the power to help firefighters fight for their rights, so they can focus on healing and returning to the selfless work that keeps us all safe. Due to the dangerous nature of their work, firefighters are at high risk of sustaining injuries while on the job. These injuries range from minor cuts and bruises to serious life-threatening burns, fractures, or traumatic head injuries. Heat exhaustion, dehydration, and smoke inhalation are common daily injuries firefighters face.
Firefighters should seek medical assistance and contact their workers’ compensation representative if they’ve incurred any of the following workplace injuries, including, but not limited to:
- Lung Damage
- Smoke Inhalation
- Burns
- Fractures
- Cancer
- Heart conditions
- Muscle tears and strains
- Tuberculosis
- Pneumonia
- Death
- Exposure to Hazardous Chemicals
- Blunt Force Trauma
- Slips, Falls, and Jumps
- Overexertion & Strain
