Airport and airline employees work in the most unforgiving conditions every day. Workplace accidents and injuries, such as back injuries from handling luggage, or injuries from air turbulence, are common for people working at Michigan airports or flight crews. Baggage handlers and ground transportation are often injured because of working outside during Michigan’s bad weather.
At the Allan W. Ben P.C. law firm, we have helped many flight attendants who have been injured on the job, especially flight attendants at Delta. Because we have talked to so many airline workers, we understand the work environment and the pressures you are under. You have to make quick decisions and react quickly to dangerous situations. That can cause injury.
You may have to been injured in turbulence, pushing a meal cart or a beverage cart, lifting and storing luggage overhead, assisting a passenger to be seated, deflecting a heavy object from hitting someone, move equipment, or reacting to an unsteady flight. Any of these can cause injury. Back injuries and injuries from falls are common among airline workers. The injuries need to be treated and allowed to heal before you return to work.
You may have a repetitive use injury that gets worse over time. Report it as soon as you are aware of the injury even if you are able to continue working. Most importantly, contact an experienced Workers’ Compensation attorney at Allan W. Ben P.C. as soon as you are injured.
We have represented many Michigan based flight attendants across the country-, regardless where they live or where they were injured. Many of them were told their injuries were not work related or serious. The consultation is free.

Ben P.C. today at 1-866-540-0677 to help you with your Workers’ Compensation case.
