After a workplace injury, it’s important to act quickly. First, seek immediate medical attention, even for minor injuries. Report the incident to your employer, following the correct reporting procedure. Document everything, including photos of the injury and the accident scene. 

Consult a lawyer to ensure your rights are protected, especially if the claim may be contested. Follow all medical advice closely, and keep track of your recovery process. Understanding your workplace rights and benefits is key to ensuring you receive the necessary compensation.
