Overall, the US Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reported that there were approximately 2.8 million total injuries in the workplace during the latest reporting year. When we look closely at one recent reporting year, we can see that there was a total of 137,440 hand injuries that resulted in employees missing days of work. Some of these injuries were severe.
Did you know that there are 27 bones in our hands?
That is only part of the overall picture. We also have to consider the countless veins, arteries, muscles, tendons, and ligaments that allow our hands to function. First, we want to look at a list of the most common workplace hand injuries:
When you look at those injuries, you can see that workplace trauma is a major concern. Some of the most common causes of these workplace hand injuries include:
We also need to discuss one of the most common hands and wrist injuries – carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). This considered a repetitive stress injury that is caused by a person repeating the same motions over and over again for long periods of time. In many cases, CTS takes years to develop, and it can be debilitating for the injured worker.
Recovering from a traumatic or repetitive stress hand injury can lead to long periods of missed work and an inability to perform everyday tasks.
Your hands are vital to the way you lead your life. When they are injured in a workplace incident, you should be able to count on receiving compensation for lost income and medical expenses.
