Fortunately, Ohio’s Bureau of Workers’ Compensation (BWC) offers certain protections if you sustained an injury or illness at work, regardless of fault. And while filing a workers’ compensation claim is a viable and practical option, it may not cover all a work accident cost you or provide compensation if a third party’s negligence caused your work injury.
If you’ve been injured at work, our Canton work injury attorneys at KNR have the knowledge and understanding you need to navigate the legal process.

Workplace injuries can cause serious physical damage and psychological side effects and may be severe enough to cause permanent or long-lasting damage.
Work injuries may be keeping you in varying degrees of pain, out of work, on disability, in debt, or simply unable to participate in your day-to-day life at full capacity. Work injuries can require both nonsurgical care as well as invasive surgery and you may also need weeks of physical therapy to correct the problem and eliminate the pain.
Occupational hazards can vary depending on where you work and what you do. A substantial number of reported workplace injuries are caused by accidents related to malfunctioning or neglected equipment or other repetitive or unnatural movement that can inhibit your body long term. Common causes of work injuries in Ohio include:
If you or a loved one have sustained a work injury because of the actions or negligence of your supervisors, your company, or another related person or entity, you may be able to open a work injury case and worker’s compensation for your loss.

Depending on the facts and circumstances involved, you may be entitled to financial relief after a work-related accident through:
The Ohio Bureau of Workers’ Compensation (BWC) ensures covered workers have certain benefits if they are injured on the job. Ohio workers’ compensation laws provide compensation for lost wages and medical care, so the injured worker can obtain the necessary medical attention they need for a full recovery.
SSD is a federal program, and benefits are paid through the Social Security Administration. SSD provides you with income if you become disabled and are unable to work. Unlike workers’ compensation, your disability does not need to result from a work-related injury or condition. To be eligible for SSD, you must have
Third-party claims refer to lawsuits or insurance claim against non-employers who are responsible for your work injuries. While workers’ comp may cover medical bills and a portion of your wages, a third-party claim can provide you with a settlement or jury verdict to pay for other losses such as pain and suffering, emotional distress, and a decrease of enjoyment of life.
Workers’ compensation offers protection from personal injury lawsuits to companies while also providing necessary benefits to workers. However, the benefits may not fully compensate you for your losses.
When a third party other than you or your employer is responsible for your injuries, you may have another option to obtain compensation for your losses. You can hold another individual or company liable for your injuries through a personal injury lawsuit. For example, if a piece of equipment you use on the job was defectively manufactured, you may be able to hold the manufacturing company responsible for the injuries that you sustained.
Examples of third-party claims include:

Workers’ compensation is a no-fault system in Ohio, but you can hold a negligent outside third party liable if you can prove:
Each case is different, but according to Ohio BWC estimates that it takes approximately, 3-4 months after the worker’s compensation application is filed to receive a settlement. If third party negligence and other parties are involved, this can either speed up or extend the process. It’s best to consult an experienced lawyer about your situation.
Ohio law sets a one-year statute of limitations for injured workers to file a worker’s comp claim. This limit is two years in cases of occupational diseases. If you are pursuing a third-party liability claim or lawsuit, the general two-year personal injury state of limitation likely applies.
