Are Truck Drivers Eligible For Workers’ Compensation?
Whether or not a truck driver is eligible for workers’ comp benefits can hinge on their employment status. Truck drivers classified as employees typically are entitled to workers’ comp benefits for on-the-job injuries. Those who are independent contractors, on the other hand, might not be, depending on the specifics of their situation.
Common Types Of Truck Accidents
Generally, truck drivers covered by workers’ comp can seek benefits for injuries resulting from accidents that occur while performing their job. Common truck accidents include:
- Rear-end collisions
- Jackknife accidents
- Load imbalance crashes
- Rollovers
- Tire blowouts
- Incidents caused by adverse weather conditions
Kevin stands up for truck drivers injured in these types of accidents.
When Other Workers Are Involved In Truck Accidents
Truck drivers aren’t the only workers who can pursue workers’ comp in connection to truck accidents. There are a variety of circumstances in which workers who are driving in relation to their jobs could end up in collisions with large trucks. As long as the driving is work related, workers’ comp benefits typically are available for injuries that occur in such collisions.
