1. Tell your supervisor immediately and ask for medical attention if you have had a work injury Georgia

One of the biggest mistakes an injured worker makes is to wait before telling the supervisor of the accident or work injury Georgia.  Many people wait hoping that the injury is minor and that it will heal in a few days.  While this may be true the accident and work injury Georgia should still be reported immediately!  It creates suspicion by the employer if a week or two after your accident you then tell the supervisor of the incident.  In fact most employer manuals or introductory material that is issued upon hire says that all accidents should be reported immediately.  I know that many workers fear for their job and therefore wait before reporting a work injury Georgia.  Waiting does not protect you.  It protects your employer’s pocket.  So, report your work injury shortly after it happens and if you need medical attention, ask for it.
