Workers’ compensation serves as a safety net for employers and is additional insurance that provides financial support and covers medical expenses and chiropractic care for individuals injured while on the job. It encompasses a range of injuries that can occur in various work environments. These injuries might stem from incidents like slips, trips, falls, or accidents while using ladders. Additionally, workers’ compensation can extend to injuries sustained during work-related travel or driving.

Many neck and back issues linked to workers’ compensation are often attributed to spinal misalignment, where the spine’s bones shift out of their proper position. Other work-related neck and back problems may result from soft tissue injuries, like whiplash, affecting the muscles, nerves, and connective tissue in these areas.
