Longshore workers or employees perform backbreaking and dangerous work – loading and unloading cargo on docked ships. They operate cranes and heavy machinery, secure containers and shovel bulk cargo like coal or gravel. During the course of their employment, they can sustain injuries of nearly every kind – from back injuries to bone fractures, from chemical burns to crush injuries, from brain injuries to death. If you are willing to take the risks to work such a job, we believe you should be swiftly compensated for any injuries you incur while working. If you are injured as a harbor worker, dock worker, stevedore, cruise ship worker, ship builder, crane operator or longshore worker, Workers compensation is not usually an easy process.
