Railroad Worker Injuries
It is very common for railroad workers to suffer cumulative trauma injuries, which are basically caused by constant wear and tear on muscles, joints and other body parts. These types of injuries include:
- Neck and back injuries
- Ruptured or herniated discs
- Shoulder injuries and torn rotator cuffs
- Head and facial injuries
- Hand injuries and carpal tunnel syndrome
- Ankle and knees injuries
- Whole body vibration injuries
Other very serious railroad worker injuries such as burns, amputations and wrongful death are also hazards of working in the railroad industry.
