Some workplace injuries occur as the result of the negligence of another party unrelated to the employer. This is common on construction sites, where there are a number of subcontractors. Outside sales people, commercial truck drivers, delivery drivers, and other individuals whose jobs require road travel may be involved in a car or truck accident due to the negligence of another driver.

In work accident cases involving an at-fault third party, you may also be eligible for a personal injury claim for pain and suffering and other damages in addition to medical coverage and lost wages.
