Law Office of Raphael B. Hedwat.
While many people believe that gun violence poses the greatest risk to police officers, other types of accidents and injuries frequently pose a greater threat. These police work-related injuries may:
When the police respond to 911 calls, they often are not sure which situations they are walking into. They may suppose that they will simply enter a residence and address the conflict at hand, only to find themselves exposed to substances like ammonia or formaldehyde used in making illegal drugs like methamphetamine.
Exposure to these chemicals can significantly compromise an officer’s health and lead to illnesses like chronic pneumonia or pulmonary fibrosis. These health conditions can shorten both an officer’s career and life expectancy. Officers who are exposed to toxins while on the job could have legal cause to file a workers’ compensation claim.

These health conditions can shorten both an officer’s career and life expectancy. Officers who are exposed to toxins while on the job could have legal cause to file a workers’ compensation claim.
In the police academy, officers are taught to navigate highways and city streets at breakneck speeds. When police are pursuing a suspect at high speeds or responding to a 911 call, they have little control over factors such as the reactions of other drivers and the road conditions.
Statistics show that traffic accidents account for the leading cause of police officer deaths on the job in this country. In 2010, 160 police officers were involved in work-related traffic accidents. Out of that 160, 73 of them died.
Officers who survive on-the-job car and motorcycle crashes often cannot go back to work right away, if ever. They need compensation for their lost wages and benefits.
