What qualifies as a workplace injury in Tennessee?

In Tennessee, a workplace injury includes any injury, illness, or condition that occurs as a direct result of your job duties or workplace environment.

For assistance with the claim process and to ensure your rights are protected, Shunnarah Law is ready to help.
