Many employees in Suffolk work for businesses near the Virginia Inland Port and the shipping and cargo operations in the areas around Burbage Grant, Bennet’s Creek Quarter, and Nansemond Pointe. Those workplaces expose employees to a higher risk of injuries, including the following:
- Injuries to shoulders, knees, and other joints, such as dislocations and torn meniscuses
- Bulging or herniated discs and other back and neck injuries
- Concussions and traumatic brain injuries
- Crushed limbs
- Internal organ damage
- Illnesses caused by exposure to toxic substances
- Vision and hearing problems
- Deep lacerations that cause permanent scarring and disfigurement.
