Safe at Work!

Labor Day weekend is just about upon us. To most people, this Monday will be simply a very welcome day off, but the holiday actually has its roots in the early American labor movement and its efforts on behalf of workers. Especially if you work as a personal injury lawyer, it seems like as opportune a time as any to remind readers about the importance of staying safe at work.

The good news is that the reported incidence of workplace injuries in the U.S. has dropped in recent years, but millions of injuries still happen each year. As busy Los Angeles personal injury attorneys, we see our share of these cases and its important to point out that a great many of them are highly preventable. Both employers and employees have a responsibility to keep their eyes, ears, and even their noses open so that they notice any potential dangers that might be lurking in even the most seemingly safe workplace.

Of course, there are times when employers and other in positions of authority fail to exercise proper caution, and its at those unfortunate points that skilled lawyers like our own Cameron Yadidi Brock can help injured parties receive their due compensation. Let's hope, however, that every one reading this enjoys a very happy and safe Labor Day, and an equally happy and safe working life. However, if an injury does occur and an at fault party does not provide due compensation, we are here to help.
