CLAIMS
William Grover Arnett established the Law Firm of
Grover Arnett in 1991, drawing on his many years
of specialized legal experience to assist clients with
disability, personal injury, worker’s
compensation, and insurance litigation.

3. COMMON WORKPLACE PERSONAL INJURY
CLAIMS
Slips and falls, faulty work equipment, missing first-
response equipment, and insufficient warnings
about hazards are the most common reasons for
workplace lawsuits. Keeping equipment up to date
and remaining mindful of dangers can reduce the
risk of expensive litigation.

4. COMMON WORKPLACE PERSONAL INJURY
CLAIMS
Successful avoidance strategies also include
creating an occupational health and safety manual
and training staff. In that regard, requiring staff to
practice emergency response processes and
accident reporting is highly recommended.
Employers have the option of hiring a risk assessor,
who will inspect the workplace and make
suggestions for precautions and improvements in
procedures to minimize hazards.

5. COMMON WORKPLACE PERSONAL INJURY
CLAIMS
Issuing correct safety gear to employees on the job
also reduces the risk of personal injury. In addition
to protective goggles or proper work boots, office
equipment such as ergonomically adjustable chairs
can also be provided to staff members. Access to
dangerous areas can be restricted, and hazards
marked appropriately.
