Matthew R. Arnold of Arnold & Smith, PLLC answers the question “What qualifies a person to receive Workers’ Compensation benefits?”
Statistics gathered by the Southeast regional office of the U.S. Bureau of Labor statistics indicate that workplaces in North Carolina are getting safer, albeit slowly. The numbers indicate that a smaller percentage of workers faced injuries, severe or otherwise, in 2013 than in previous years. Though the numbers are hardly an astounding success, they do indicate that things are improving for workers in North Carolina, something worth celebrating.
