Sin embargo, los trabajadores est\u00e1n expuestos a muchos peligros en el trabajo, que pueden provocar lesiones graves y potencialmente mortales.<\/p>\n<p>A veces las lesiones se deben a errores humanos. Otras veces se deben a cat\u00e1strofes naturales o al mal funcionamiento de los equipos. Sea cual sea la causa, los trabajadores de campos petrol\u00edferos que han sufrido lesiones en el trabajo tienen derecho a indemnizaci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n<p><strong>La culpa no importa en las reclamaciones de indemnizaci\u00f3n por accidente laboral<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Seg\u00fan la ley de indemnizaci\u00f3n de los trabajadores Texas, no importa qui\u00e9n haya sido el culpable de una lesi\u00f3n o enfermedad, siempre que la lesi\u00f3n o enfermedad se haya producido en el curso y \u00e1mbito del trabajo. Esto incluye los viajes relacionados con el trabajo.<\/p>\n<p>En otras palabras, aunque una lesi\u00f3n haya sido causada por la propia negligencia del trabajador, \u00e9ste puede tener derecho a prestaciones de compensaci\u00f3n de los trabajadores.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tipo de indemnizaci\u00f3n a la que tienen derecho los trabajadores lesionados<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>La indemnizaci\u00f3n por accidente de trabajo cubre los salarios perdidos y las facturas m\u00e9dicas relacionadas con la lesi\u00f3n o enfermedad. Tambi\u00e9n puede incluir prestaciones por entierro y fallecimiento para las familias de los trabajadores fallecidos en el trabajo.<\/p>\n<p>Si un tercero es responsable de la lesi\u00f3n o enfermedad laboral -por ejemplo, un conductor negligente-, tambi\u00e9n es posible presentar una demanda contra \u00e9l por da\u00f1os y perjuicios, incluido el dolor y el sufrimiento.<\/p>\n<p><strong>No todos los empresarios Texas tienen seguro de accidentes laborales<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A diferencia de la mayor\u00eda de los estados, la ley Texas no obliga a las empresas a tener un seguro de accidentes laborales, lo que puede ser problem\u00e1tico para los trabajadores que se lesionan en el trabajo y cuyas empresas no est\u00e1n suscritas.<\/p>\n<p>Sin embargo, tambi\u00e9n significa que los trabajadores pueden tener derecho a demandar al empresario por da\u00f1os y perjuicios si la negligencia de \u00e9ste ha desempe\u00f1ado un papel en la lesi\u00f3n o enfermedad.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Qu\u00e9 hacer tras una lesi\u00f3n o enfermedad laboral<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1. Lo primero que hay que hacer tras lesionarse en el trabajo o desarrollar una enfermedad laboral es comunicarlo a la direcci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n<p>Seg\u00fan la ley de compensaci\u00f3n de los trabajadores Texas, la lesi\u00f3n debe notificarse en los 30 d\u00edas siguientes a la lesi\u00f3n, o en los 30 d\u00edas siguientes a que el trabajador tenga conocimiento de que la lesi\u00f3n o enfermedad est\u00e1 relacionada con el trabajo.<\/p>\n<p>2. El siguiente paso que debe dar un trabajador lesionado es recibir tratamiento de un profesional m\u00e9dico y documentar adecuadamente la lesi\u00f3n o enfermedad.<\/p>\n<p>No tomar ninguna de estas medidas puede perjudicar en gran medida una reclamaci\u00f3n de indemnizaci\u00f3n de los trabajadores.<\/p>\n<p>3. Por \u00faltimo, los trabajadores lesionados deben llamar a un abogado que tenga experiencia en la tramitaci\u00f3n de <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mblaw.org\/es\/west-texas-oilfield-accidente-abogado\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">reclamaciones de indemnizaci\u00f3n de los trabajadores del sector petrol\u00edfero<\/a> y puede ayudar a garantizar que el trabajador obtenga la indemnizaci\u00f3n a la que tiene derecho.<\/p>\n<p>Sin la ayuda de un abogado, conseguir una indemnizaci\u00f3n justa es algo muy dif\u00edcil.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Oil field work often pays well.
