Common Types of Injuries FedEx Employees Suffer
FedEx employees can be drivers, but they can also be people that work in the warehouses or manage customer service needs. Some of the most common injuries FedEx workers suffer while at work include the following:
- Amputations: The sorting and organization of FedEx’s complex warehouses and distribution networks creates an increased risk of injury, including severe losses like amputations. Equipment can malfunction, or mistakes in operation can occur.
- Broken Bones: Falls, getting trapped, or being crushed are all common reasons that FedEx workers suffer broken bones on the job. Sometimes these do not heal well, leading to long-term pain and mobility issues.
- Traumatic Brain Injuries: Falling or otherwise striking the head, such as in a front-end collision, can lease to traumatic brain injuries, often causing long-term suffering and limitations on cognitive function. These are most common in drivers.
- Repetitive Motion Disorders: Those working in the sorting and loading packages division may be prone to repetitive motion disorders, such as difficulties related to carpal tunnel from doing the same thing over and over again.
- Back Injuries: Many FedEx workers struggle with heavy lifting as a part of their job, and it can cause debilitating back injuries, often limiting the range of motion and movement.
- Dog Attacks: Another type of injury that can happen to FedEx workers is a dog bite or attack when delivering packages.
These are just some of the potential injuries that FedEx workers have. You may have lacerations, burns, whiplash from car accidents, or illnesses from exposure to chemicals or fumes. In any of these situations, you may be able to file a FedEx workers’ compensation claim.
