What Is a Workplace Injury and Am I Eligible for Workers Compensation?

Workplace injuries may also include pre-existing injuries that have been worsened as a result of work.
Different types of workplace injuries include:
- Physical injuries – such as slips and falls, lifting injuries, industrial deafness, falling from a height, muscular injuries, and repetitive strain injury (RSI)
- Psychological injuries – such as anxiety, depression, stress, loss of sleep, and the aggravation of pre-existing mental health conditions.
