Automated equipment and heavy machinery pose a constant crushing injury hazard to workers who must use it to complete their regular job functions. The dangers of such equipment can be amplified tenfold when safety protocols are not encouraged or followed and routine maintenance is neglected.
When a crush injury accident occurs on a job site, it is uncommon for it to be the fault of the injured employee; it is not uncommon for the employer and their insurance company to try to deny workers’ compensation benefits.

Painful Consequences of Crush Injuries
Moving gears, pneumatic presses, fast conveyor belts, and falling objects on a job site can all cause a crushing injury. Most crush injury cases involve a hand, arm, or leg that was placed under or within a machine, either to operate it normally or in an attempt to fix it after a malfunction. While a crush injury to a limb or extremity might not pose an immediate risk of fatality, the consequences are usually debilitating and permanent.
A crush injury could cause the victim to experience:
- Inability to control digits
- Disfigurement
- Paralysis in one arm or leg
- Inability to walk without pain
A worker who has suffered a crushing injury may find it painful, difficult, or simply impossible to perform regular work functions. This could cause them to be pre-eliminated from possible promotions and raises, negatively impacting their finances and fiscal wellbeing for the rest of their lives.
