Perhaps you are one of the many Walmart workers injured at their warehouses. In 2022, the U.S. Department of Labor investigated claims over the high risk of workplace injury there.

The Risks Are High to Walmart Workers
Heavy boxes, inefficiencies with equipment, and the rush to get more done faster puts people at risk. When safety guidelines are not followed or in situations where proper oversight doesn’t occur, these types of injuries can create life-threatening outcomes.
In Georgia, there are 66,800 people that work for Walmart in some capacity. The company, which employed more than 2.3 million people around the world at the end of 2022, is one of the largest employers. Yet, that doesn’t mean their associates are safe. When accidents occur, you have the right to seek compensation for your losses. Filing a Walmart workers’ compensation claim is necessary, and we can help you.

Common Injuries Walmart Associates Face
Numerous types of injuries impact Walmart employees each year. You should be able to file a claim for any losses you have from any type of work injury. Some of the most common include:
- Slips and falls: Improperly maintained surfaces are a common cause of this type of injury. This includes in-store, warehouse, and parking lots. Tripping over pallets, slipping on icy surfaces, or falling on wet floors are common.
- Back injuries: Lifting without support, lifting items that are too heavy, or strains to the back are also common injuries for Walmart workers. Even if you follow all the lifting rules, you may still suffer injuries.
- Repetitive injuries: The movement of muscles and limbs in repeated fashion can lead to repetitive injuries. This includes conditions like carpal tunnel. You may also develop painful spinal column injuries from standing in place for long periods of time.
- Lacerations: Equipment can be dangerous including in the various warehouses and storage areas of these retail locations. Cuts from box knives are just one example. Others include injuries from boxing equipment, forklifts, and falling objects.
- Loss of limbs: In some situations, lacerations, equipment failures, or other accidents can result in the loss of a finger or limb.
- Neck injuries: Falling objects, twisting and turning, and straining can lead to neck injuries, sometimes also causing shoulder and back pain.
