I had a client call me who had been injured working in a plant in South Augusta. He asked me, “Are all injuries that occur at work covered under workers’ compensation?” If you’re reading this, you may have similar questions. I’ll tell you what I told that client. Most injuries that occur arising out of your employment are treated by workers’ compensation. There are a couple of unique injuries, such as heart attacks, strokes, or hernias that need special medical proof to have those compensable, but, as a general rule, all injuries that occur within the scope of your employment are covered by workers’ compensation.
