Broken Bones Are Among the Most Common Workplace Injuries
Many claims filed with the Ohio Bureau of Workers' Compensation (BWC) involve broken bones. Some bones are very fragile. Virtually any kind of accident or mishap on the job puts your hands, feet and limbs in danger of a fractured bone.
Workplace accidents resulting in broken bones can vary in severity. Your doctor may describe your injury with different terms.
