Burn Injuries in the Workplace
Burn injuries are some of the most catastrophic and excruciatingly painful types of injuries a person can experience. Whether they are caused by an open flame, high-voltage electrical shocks, or caustic chemical exposure, severe burns can require extensive skin grafts to be treated and rob a person of their ability to work. If you have suffered a burn injury in connection with the duties of your occupation, you may be entitled to recover financial benefits under your employer’s workers’ compensation insurance.

Degrees of Burns
Chemical, electrical, and thermal burns are categorized into different “degrees” based on severity:
- First Degree – These burns only affect the outer layer of skin. While uncomfortable, these burns are the least serious and generally involve redness, pain, and general discomfort. Bandages and topical ointments are usually all that is required to treat a first degree burn.
- Second Degree – These burns affect the top two layers of skin, the epidermis and the underlying dermis. Second degree burns are more serious than first degree burns, causing redness, pain, blisters, and possible scarring.
- Third Degree – These burns damage all the way down to the fatty layer underneath the dermis, destroying nerves and causing the skin to take on a waxy or leathery appearance. Third degree burns can be agonizingly painful and can require expensive skin graft surgeries.
- Fourth Degree – These burns are the most serious of all, classified by deep charring of muscles, tendons, ligaments, and bones. These types of burns frequently require amputation and are often fatal.

The Alvandi Law Group has been great so far. They have been very patient and informative with all of my questions and concerns. This is the first time that I have been injured at work so this whole process is very new to me. They got me out to a doctor quickly and the staff seems very friendly. The office itself is very nice and there is a large fish tank in the waiting area.
